Gimlet Highball

Gimlet Highball

The gimlet highball was created at Sanlucar Bar in Kagurazaka Japan and is the preferred drink of Hard Shake inventor Kazuo Uyeda. And if any of you are still trying to master the hard shake, keep in mind that Uyeda has said only one other person has mastered that technique, his 20 year protégé Kiyoshi Shimbashi. So, Good luck!
