Syrup
Fresh Lime Cordial
S tier
Fresh lime cordial is made to taste of just-squeezed fruit: short heat or no-cook oleo-saccharum plus juice, bright oil, no musty bottle note. Craft bars keep it cold and make it often. This is the modern gimlet if you reject Rose's. It fades in a week.

History
Craft bartenders published fresh lime cordials to replace the candy bottle.
Oleo-saccharum lime cordials became a standard prep list item.
Fresh lime cordial stayed a perishable house syrup, not a grocery tin.
