This cocktail sweetener couldn&#8217;t be easier to make\u2014after all, simple is in the name\u2014and lasts around a month when stashed in the fridge.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Garnish:<\/strong> A lime wedge or wheel is the traditional garnish for a gimlet.

Add the vodka, lime juice and simple syrup.<\/p>\n<p><em>Editor&#8217;s Tip:<\/em> Remember to chill your glass in advance! It&#8217;ll allow the drink to stay cool longer, without the need for ice. Thirty minutes in the freezer is all it should need. You can also fill your glass with ice water while you mix the cocktail, then dump the ice water before straining from the shaker.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 2: Shake and strain the gimlet<\/h3>\n<p>Cover and shake the cocktail for 10 to 15 seconds or until condensation forms on the outside of the cocktail shaker. Strain it into a chilled glass and garnish it with lime.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-2015707 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Gimlet_TOHVP24_276664_MR_04_30_1-e1721114787750.jpg?fit=700%2C467\" alt=\"Gimlet \" width=\"700\" height=\"467\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Vodka Gimlet Variations<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Use flavored vodka:<\/strong> Citrusy vodkas are an obvious (though nonetheless exquisite) option. Try your next gimlet with lime, grapefruit, blood orange or\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/lemon-vodka\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/lemon-vodka\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">lemon vodka<\/a>. Cucumber, strawberry and pineapple are a few other prime picks, especially once you start experimenting with herbs in your gimlets.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Add fresh herbs: <\/strong>Use fresh thyme, basil, rosemary or lemon balm to elevate a standard gimlet. Muddle the leaves then build, shake and strain the cocktail, adding a sprig or two as a garnish.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Make a gin gimlet:<\/strong> Gin is the original spirit for gimlets, and its botanical aromas and flavors make for an elegant cocktail.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Use honey instead of simple syrup:<\/strong> Swapping honey for simple syrup adds a pretty floral note to your gimlets. The best way to dissolve honey into a cocktail is to mix it with a splash of hot water, then pour that into the shaker with the rest of the ingredients.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Can you make vodka gimlets ahead of time?<\/h2>\n<p>Gimlets, whether vodka or gin-based, are stellar cocktails to make in advance, especially if you&#8217;re planning a party. Combine the ingredients in a pitcher without ice, and store covered in the fridge for up to four days. If you&#8217;re using Rose&#8217;s lime cordial instead of fresh lime, your big batch of gimlets should last about a week.<\/p>\n<h2>Vodka Gimlet Recipe Tips<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-2015708 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Gimlet_TOHVP24_276664_MR_04_30_2JPG-e1721114806594.jpg?fit=700%2C467\" alt=\"Gimlet \" width=\"700\" height=\"467\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Should you use Rose&#8217;s lime cordial or fresh lime juice in a gimlet?<\/h3>\n<p>The debate over whether to use lime cordial or fresh lime juice with simple syrup comes down entirely to personal preference. Classic gimlet recipes call for Rose&#8217;s cordial, with some variations specifying as much as a 1-1 ratio of vodka and Rose&#8217;s. Naturally, if you&#8217;re using cordial, skip the simple syrup.<\/p>\n<h3>What type of glass do you use for a vodka gimlet?<\/h3>\n<p>The correct glass for a vodka gimlet depends on whether you enjoy sipping the cocktail straight up or on the rocks. A martini or coupe glass is perfect for those who enjoy their gimlets shaken and strained. If you&#8217;re more of a rocks person, grab a standard old-fashioned glass and fill it with ice.<\/p>\n<h3>What can you serve with a vodka gimlet?<\/h3>\n<p>While there are many versatile cocktails out there, the vodka gimlet is truly one of the most food-friendly tipples. Its easy-drinking, uncomplicated profile means you can drink a vodka gimlet with a huge variety of dishes and cuisines. In general, stick to lighter fare. Pair it with pasta dishes like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/springtime-penne\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/springtime-penne\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">springtime penne<\/a>, Greek pasta or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/easy-chicken-alfredo\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/easy-chicken-alfredo\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">chicken Alfredo<\/a>.
