SUNDAY SESH // GIN GIMLET
This Sunday Sesh we are raising our glasses to the Gin Gimlet!
Another cocktail with a mysterious origin story, one source claims that this drink was created to stop scurvy on English Naval ships! The vitamin C in the lime helps prevent this. But Officers weren't taking their rations.. So they thought to themselves, 'How do I get sailors to ingest lime?' Add alcohol of course! And the Gin Gimlet was invented. Modern day; This drink is great for those on a health bender. It's Low calorie, and a good excuse to get (ship)wrecked!
- So dust off that cocktail shaker and get in!
