Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Because it deserves its own post:
Further adventures in gimlet exploration...
Requested: Gin gimlet
Received: Gin on the rocks with freshly squeezed lime juice and a dash of Rose's syrup
Conclusion: I prefer the vodka gimlet, and I certainly prefer the gimlet straight up. Fresh lime juice continues to add pep to the drink's step.

But is it still a gimlet? Yes, the Rose's syrup is present, but you've now added an ingredient.
(How much do I love that the vodka gimlet deserves its own post? THIIIIIIIIISMUUUUUUCH.)
If I was tending bar and you asked for a gimlet I'd give you 1 1/2 oz of Gin on the rocks with 1 oz of Roses lime juice and a fresh lime wedge (unsqueezed.)
I certainly prefer the gimlet straight up.
What's this mean?
Without ice.
eta: For the record, that was the BJ's Brewhouse (on Canoga) gimlet. Still the winner is Arsenal's (on Pico) Grey Goose straight up.
Ok, good. I thought you went mad and meant something CRAZY like lime juice only.

Who knows? I'll keep ordering them around the place and asking for their recipes.
This one was way cheap, too. I didn't catch its price, but the drink tab was $6.45 for the gimlet and a Heffenwieser (indubitably mispelt).

Then it's not a gimlet. It's a vodka lime. I've had arguments with customers over this. Don't ask for a vodka gimlet and then get pissed that it's sweet. That's the freakin' drink buddy.
I'm craving a double double. I wonder where the nearest In-n-Out is.
I'm having an enchirito but my mexican pizza is sadly Dali-esque. The nearest In n Out is at Inglewood & the 405.
