Rose Gimlet

The gimlet is traditionally a cocktail made with gin & lime juice. A description in the 1953 Raymond Chandler novel The Long Goodbye stated that ā€œa real gimlet is half gin and half Roseā€™s lime juice cordial and nothing else.ā€ However, modern tastes are less sweet, and generally provide for at least two parts gin to one part of lime + other non-alcoholic elements. This rose rendition is perfect for Valentineā€™s Day! šŸŒ¹šŸ’œ

In a clean shaker filled with ice, add all ingredients & shake vigorously until combined. Double strain into vintage glassware serve on a sliver platter with dried rose petals. Tasting Tip: If you like a little more citrus, bump it up to 1oz. This is delicious too šŸ˜‰Ā
