The Gimlet is an old drink that dates back to the days of sailing ships and scurvy. It was made by sailors in order to get them their Vitamin C. Despite having Lime in the drink, it is still Stirred instead of Shaken. Apparently Lime Cordial isn’t considered a Citrus Juice. There are also recipes that substitute the Lime Cordial for Lime Juice and Simple Syrup, but at that point you aren’t making a Gimlet, you’re making a Gin Sour.
