Vodka Gimlet
The Vodka Gimlet is a riff on the popular Gin Gimlet. It’s rumored to have gotten its name from a small tool for boring holes called a gimlet — perhaps for the drink’s piercing taste or effect? Others claim it dates back to an 18th century tonic given to sailors to prevent scurvy. Don’t even think about using fake lime juice here!
