This vodka gimlet is my go to when I want a cocktail that feels a little fancy but takes almost no effort. It’s bright and refreshing because no syrupy, overly sweet drinks over here.

Notes
In my opinion, you are better off using the juice from real, fresh limes. You can use the same amount of the sweetened lime juice if you wish.
Modify the recipe to fit your taste. This isn't an overly sweet cocktail. Add additional sweetener or simple syrup if you wish. Add additional vodka if you prefer a stronger drink.
