]]>Lime Cordial is a sweet tart key ingredient for Gimlets. This will replace the corn syrup filled Roses Sweetened Lime that you can find at any liquor store.
Lime Cordial Recipe (Employee’s Only)
- 4 cups fresh lime juice
- 2.5 cups agave nectar
- 40 kaffir lime leaves
Add all ingredients to a pot and bring to a boil. I also added the lime zest for an added…zest.
After you bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer and keep there for 35 minutes or it has turned into a syrup.
Separate the solids
Allow the mixture to cool and bottle. I made some great custom labels to add a unique feel. These make great gifts. They should keep for a few weeks.
Gimlet
- 2 oz gin
- 3/4 oz lime cordial
- lime wheel
- Build in a iced rocks glass and garnish with lime
Budmo!

]]>It is the Christmas spirit for some green and red cocktails? I’m not sure if that is right but I am stating it here. Anywho…a gimlet sounded delicious. Also, I made the lime cordial that supposedly goes bad in 7 days. Crap. Who wants a gimlet?
