Classic Gin Sour a Pink Gin Gimlet Cocktail
When it comes to classic cocktails, a Gimlet has been popular since at least 1928, when the word was first used to describe this libation. Short on ingredients gin, lime juice and sugar, this cocktail packs a punch. The Gimlet is also classified as a gin sour which we’ve given a rosé touch with our Original Rosé Gin. Santé!

Pink Gin Gimlet
The key to a refreshing Gimlet cocktail is the combination of fresh lime and citrus served ice cold.
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 oz Mirabeau Dry Gin 25ml for a lighter serve
- 1 1/2 oz Fresh Kaffir Lime Juice regular limes work too
- 3/4 oz Sugar Syrup
- Ice Cubes
- Lime Rind for garnish
Instructions
- Add a generous handful of ice cubes to a shaker and combine the ingredients. Shake the ingredients and strain over your martini glass. For that bar-chic garnish, carefully peel the rind around the width of the lime and roll once to create a glass-ready twirl.
Notes
Piece de ResistanceFor that ice-cool serve, pop your martini glass in the freezer 1-2 hours before serving. For an aromatic boost, add a touch of the Kaffir lime rind to your sugar syrup, heat through and re-cool.
