Live from Chicago!

I may finally have found a summer drink that I love! Here I am enjoying a Gimlet martini at the Knickerbocker bar in Chicago!  A Gimlet martini is a wonderful composition of citron flavored vodka or gin, Rose's lime juice and freshly squeezed lime juice shaken together with alot of ice! It's a wonderfully refreshing martini, whether you have it straight up or on the rocks! I think that I am also going to try to make this with fresh cucumber juice and some Hendricks Gin! For those of you not familiar with Hendricks, it's a wonderful gin, my absolute favorite made in Scotland and flavoured with cucumbers and rose petals and other fabulously herby flavours.....need I say more?!
