Non-Alcoholic Gimlet Recipe with Seedlip Spice 94
On any list of classic cocktails, you don’t have to search very far to find a listing for “Gimlet”. A bar staple for nearly a century, gimlets are surprisingly simple – gin, fresh lime juice, and for some, a splash of water or tonic to mellow out the bite.
Of course, those that have spent any time at all crafting non-alcoholic cocktails know that “simple” recipes often end up being the hardest to replicate. Without multiple mixers, juices, and syrups, the backbone of “simple” cocktails tends to be the alcohol. Which, when you’re trying to mix an alcohol-free drink, can make for a challenge.
Thankfully, the market for non-alcoholic spirits is getting better by the day, which means there are plenty of options for swapping out the alcohol in these classic cocktail recipes. Take, for example, the wonderful world of Seedlip. The world’s first distilled non-alcoholic spirit, Seedlip offers three varieties of alcohol-free spirits – Seedlip Grove 42, Seedlip Spice 94, and Seedlip Garden 108 – each with their own unique flavor profile.
While there are plenty of non-alcoholic spirits that look to replicate their alcoholic counterparts flavor by flavor and note by note (for example, the spot-on Monday Alcohol-Free Gin), Seedlip offers a unique twist when used to craft non-alcoholic cocktails, and can make for a drink that’s way more interesting than the original.
In the case of the classic Gimlet, swapping the gin for Seedlip Spice 94 opens a whole new side of the drink. With cardamom and allspice bringing a warm heat, and fresh notes of citrus blending perfectly with the lime juice, Seedlip Spice 94 is the ideal backbone of a non-alcoholic Gimlet. While the flavors are reminiscent of the original, this swap to non-alcoholic spirits makes for a new, complex alcohol-free cocktail that’s sure to turn heads.
