Gimlet Cocktail

Prep Time: 5 minutes
Total Time: 5 minutes
Serves 1
Tart and refreshing, a gimlet is one of my favorite cocktails. With just 3 ingredients, it's easy to make at home! I love the ratio of gin to lime juice to sweetener here, but feel free to adjust it to suit your tastes.

Ingredients

  • 2½ ounces gin
  • ½ ounce fresh lime juice
  • ½ ounce simple syrup
  • Ice
  • Lime wheel, for garnish

Instructions

  • Place the gin, lime juice, and simple syrup in a cocktail shaker. Add ice and shake until well chilled.
  • Strain into a chilled coupe glass and garnish with a lime wheel.
