What happens when you mix alcohol and lime juice?

Mixing alcohol and lime juice results in a cocktail known as a 'Gimlet'. Gimlets are composed of gin and lime cordial or lime juice, often with simple syrup to add sweetness. The sour taste of the lime contrasts with the juniper flavors of the gin, creating a refreshing and balanced drink. This classic cocktail has been enjoyed for over a century and holds its place in cocktail history as a simple yet refined beverage.
