Lime Cordial

Jeffrey Morgenthaler's recipe — essential for a traditional Gimlet. Forget Rose's Lime.

Ingredients: 250g sugar, 8 oz hot water, 1½ oz fresh lime juice, 1½ oz freshly grated lime peel, 1 oz citric acid.

Combine all ingredients in a blender. Blend on medium speed for 30 seconds.

Strain with a fine strainer. Bottle and refrigerate.
