Gimlet (Schumann's recipe)

Schumann uses fresh citrus sourness to balance rich lime cordial but opts for lighter lemon juice rather than lime as is classic with a Gimlet

Made this with Beefeater gin and my own homemade lime cordial. Really delicious and bracingly tart, but just balanced enough.

I was just about to say practically the same thing. Used Tanqueray. Did your cordial have citric acid in it? I like how puckering it is, but my eyes are starting to water.

To be honest, no. I couldn't bother with it. I just used lime juice and lime oleo saccharum and combined them together.
