Continuing my gin extravaganza of last night (I didn't sleep very well; I wonder why), I jumped ahead a few days in my calendar and stirred up a cocktail with gin (I used Gordon's), lime juice, superfine sugar, and a few wrist jerks of bitters.
I only had about an ounce of lime juice and no intact limes at hand, so I made up the difference with Rose's and skipped the superfine sugar.
Not a bad drink; the bitters gave a different direction to a gin and lime drink. This isn't a drink I'd make every night, but it gives me some ideas about how bitters can be used in other drinks where I wouldn't think to use them.
And More Gin
