Gimlet
Reviews:
August 31, 2012

ALMOST right. You definitely don't need the added white sugar if you use sweentend lime juice, unless you like it REALLY sweet like a soft drink. Go with straight lime juice and the white sugar OR the sweetened limes juice (like Rose's). Now that's the perfect Gimlet. No need to rim the glass...that's too froufrou and girly. I have a set of shimy aluminum "gimlet glasses" from my parents (and grandparents). I remember my parents and grandparents making a batch of Gimlets and drinking from these glasses. The condensation would form on the outside of the metal and create "sweat beads" in the hot weather.
