The Gimlet is a classic cocktail comprised of gin, lime and sugar. But what happens when you add a spicy green poblano liqueur to the mix? Well, you get the Ancho Gimlet (ancho simply meaning a poblano that's been dried). It's supplied via Ancho Reyes Verde, the peppery Mexican liqueur that adds notes of roasted poblano to anything it touches.Toss in a little fresh cucumber, and you've got a festive take on the Gimlet that gives the drink a welcome kick without sacrificing refreshment.
