50ml Bathtub Gin
25ml freshly squeezed lime juice
15ml sugar syrup
Ice, for shaking

Tasting Notes

Nose: Fresh lime zest with aromatic juniper and soft botanical notes from the gin.

Palate: Bright and zesty with freshly squeezed lime balanced by gentle sweetness and the smooth botanical character of Bathtub Gin.

Finish: Clean, crisp and refreshing with lingering citrus and subtle botanical complexity.

Perfect Serve

Serve well chilled in a coupe or martini glass with a fresh lime twist. The sharp citrus character of the lime works beautifully with the botanicals of Bathtub Gin, while just enough sugar syrup softens the acidity without taking away the Gimlet’s famously crisp character.

Perfect For

Pre-dinner drinks, cocktail evenings, entertaining friends or anyone who enjoys clean, citrus-led classics where a great gin remains firmly at the centre of the drink.

Why We Love It

The Gimlet is proof that a cocktail does not need a long ingredient list to be exceptional. Bathtub Gin brings rich botanical character, fresh lime provides a sharp citrus lift and the sugar syrup ties everything together. Simple, elegant and refreshingly uncomplicated, it is a classic for very good reason.
