Sparkling Gimlet Cocktail
The Gimlet cocktail was reputedly first created in Great Britain on a ship for sailors to get their daily source of citrus to prevent scurvy. I’ve added some simple syrup and club soda to make a more festive version for the holidays. You could even add a splash of cranberry juice to give it a hint of pink. Cheers!
