...after one of these, but speaking of a Hendrick's gimlet, here's a recipe that my brother swears he got from the lovely Suzanne herself:
Hendrick's Gimlet
2 oz. Hendrick's Gin
1 oz. fresh squeezed lime juice
3/4 oz. simple syrup
To make simple syrup, in a small pan stir 1 c. sugar into 1 c. water and heat to boiling, stirring occasionally. Cool.
Fill cocktail shaker with ice, add ingredients, shake very well and strain into martini glass. Garnish with lime wedge.
Note: You can use any gin, but Hendrick's just seems to have that perfectly balanced floral-herbal character that works magic here.
