Cocktail - The Fresh Gimlet

Adapted from The Cocktail Codex

Fresh Gimlet

For one drink

2 ounces Plymouth Gin
1 ounce fresh lime juice
3/4 ounce simple syrup*
Garnish with 1 lime wedge

Shake all the ingredients together then strain into a coupe. Garnish with a lime wedge.

*Simple Syrup
From The Kitchn

Simple syrup is equal parts sugar and water. 

250g filtered water
250g white sugar

Heat the water by itself, but do not bring it to a boil. Add the sugar and mix until the sugar is dissolved. Cool completely and store in a jar in the refrigerator for 2 to 3 weeks.

I drink a fresh gimlet because I avoid Rose's Lime Juice, which comes in a plastic bottle and has high-fructose corn syrup and dye in it - things I avoid.
