Vodka Gimlet

Cultural Context

The Vodka Gimlet is a classic cocktail that originated in the late 19th century, popularized by British naval officers who mixed gin with lime juice to prevent scurvy. This refreshing drink has evolved over the years, with vodka becoming a favored base for its smoothness. Today, the Vodka Gimlet is enjoyed worldwide, celebrated for its simplicity and balance of tart and sweet flavors.
