Can you convert for bucket sized glasses? Looks refreshing.

No need to apologize; it is so hard to keep up with everything , let alone a blog!! Great drink!!!
That's okay.
Wine worked just fine. :)
I fixed your polenta with sausage and parmesan last week (can't remember the exact name) as well as your oatmeal cookies. You are w-a-y up on my husband's list now. He loved them both.
I love Gimlets, but I make mine with vodka since I don't like gin. So technically they're not really gimlets.
I'll bet that hits the spot!
this coctail must be wonderful!

Gin gimlets are my favorite mixed drink!
I feel the same way. It's been such a busy end of summer for me! I used to love gimlets but haven't had one for ages. A very refreshing cocktail!
yum, yum!
My dad used to drink gimlets, I haven't thought about them in years---this is a must try!
I love me a good gimlet! This one looks fabulous!!!
I could use one of those too...so refreshing!
sounds so refreshing!
Lime juice, simple syrup, and gin...this gotta be good! Thanks for the recipe, Velva. (I have to admit, I love any drinks with simple syrup in the them. Yum.)
i LOVE citrus flavored anything. this looks awesome!
Oh my, I'm with you on the crazy last few months. I'm so tired. :-) But we're making it, right?! Would love this drink right now, and just added gin to my grocery list. :-)
Cheery! Looks completely refreshing.
Looks beauitful and refreshing!
I'm glad things have slowed down a little bit - it's nice to have a minute to relax!
I've been chasing my tail too....
delicious!
looks wonderful. love the lime juice in it
I love a good refreshing gimlet. Though you know me, the ex cocktail bartender has to question things....why is this a Tokyo cocktail? I thought there'd be sake? It's almost a traditional gimlet but I don't understand the use of Rose's lime as well as fresh lime and sugar syrup. One or the other. But I'm glad you had a chance to relax and enjoy a cocktail...I had a kaffir lime mojito in L.A.!
Looks delicious! Refreshing gimlet! great blog, i will follow!
What can I say about this delicious looking drink other than it looks good enough to dive into.
