Fresh lime juice is best for gimlets. And I agree; I either have to tell the bartender what it is, or I have to ask them to modify it. I've had a lot of "EUUUGGH, that's just cold vodka UNDO IT UNDO IT!" gimlets.
I prefer more Rose's to less, Vortx, to avoid precisely that reaction.
I drank WAY too much straight vodka in high school to want to taste it now!
I still stand by my Sazerac cocktail recommendation. Classy, classic, simple, badass, mysterious.
By most accounts the Sazerac is the first cocktail.
I need to go to bars that specialize in classic cocktails, single malt whiskey, micro brewed beer, and, um, port wine.
That would be Alembic in my neighborhood. And I know you like their beer since they're affiliated with Magnola where I took you drinking.
My drinks of choice: Cheap red wine a la Riunite Lambrusco, and Boone's Farm Sangria.

What is in a Sazerac? I don't like any kind of whisky, gin, bourbon or Scotch, so I'm pretty limited in my cocktailage.
My Celtic heritage turns up its nose at me and sniffs. I don't really like beer, either.
Connie, I have a friend who luuuurves the Lambrusco! She kinds of slinks around with a paper bag full of it at summer parties cause her husband is a wine snob.

My aunts love the asti spumante and whenever I have to buy it, I'm kind of embarassed. When I see people look in cart, I want to say "it's not for me". I swear, I'd be less ashamed to have a box of condoms in the basket.
Hey, a box of condoms in the basket would imply you're getting some action. Or a lot of action. Depending on how many condoms we're talking.

She'd have a lot. Vortex does not do anything small. See also: breasts.
Hey, throw in the condom with the Asti and wear a corset while purchasing!! And a a copy of The Economist; flout expectations! Fun people watching.
