About Gimlet cocktail

The Gimlet cocktail is a classic, tangy drink traditionally made with just two main ingredients: gin and lime juice, though some variations include simple syrup for added sweetness. Originating from British naval practices in the 19th century, the Gimlet was initially conceived as a way to prevent scurvy by mixing gin with preserved lime juice. Its crisp and refreshing flavor has since earned it a place in cocktail culture worldwide. While the drink doesn't offer significant nutritional benefits, lime juice contributes a small dose of vitamin C and antioxidants. However, the alcohol content and potential added sugar make it a high-calorie choice, so moderation is advisable. For a lighter version, consider replacing simple syrup with a natural sweetener or opting for less sugary lime juice.
