The Colonial Gimlet - Fancy a Drink - An Excellent Weekend Cocktail

Home ›  › The Colonial Gimlet

Colonial Gimlet, bottle of rum, cocktail glass and handwritten recipe on a table

Start the weekend off right with a Colonial Gimlet. My grandmother wrote this recipe down for my grandfather in the 1980s. As a result, I’m certain he took this hint and made that exact cocktail for her.

The note has survived time and recently made its way to us here at Fancy A Drink and we now bring you both the photograph and recipe.

The recipe can be found here and we hope you enjoy it. We will be making our Colonial Gimlet with BUMBU (The Original) Rum.
