How it tastes
Pear softens the gin and lets the juniper sit gently underneath. Lime keeps everything bright. Elderflower adds the floral lift on the finish. Drinks dry, not sweet, despite the fruit. We've found this is one of the easiest crowd-pleasers when someone says "I don't usually like gin".
Why we built it
The classic gimlet is gin and lime cordial. Beautiful but unforgiving. Adding fresh pear gives the drink rounded body without losing the gimlet shape. Elderflower is the small bridge between the pear and the gin's botanicals. The whole drink reads as a more grown-up version of a fruit-forward cocktail.
