{ Gin Gimlet Cocktail Recipe }
A classic cocktail recipe made with our HM London Dry Gin. Originally crafted in the 1920’s with lime cordial, the Gin Gimlet cocktail recipe has since evolved and there are multiple modern variations of this classic. Here is one of the ways to enjoy the classic gin gimlet cocktail, our personal favorite Gin Gimlet cocktail recipe incorporates adding mint leaves.
