We are keeping cool this Summer with this refreshing cucumber gin cocktail. For a delicious mocktail, skip the gin and add some more club soda.

ingredients
- 6 thick slices of cucumber
- 10-12 fresh mint leaves
- 1 ounce lime juice
- 2 ounces dry gin
- Club soda
- Mint sprig for garnish
- thinner slices of cucumber for glass garnish
Method
Step 1
Thinly slice 5-6 cucumber coins and gently press them into the side of a lowball cocktail glass. The moisture in the cucumber should help them stick. (If the glass is too curved, it may not work.)
Step 2
In a cocktail shaker, muddle 6 thicker slices of cucumber and 10-12 mint leaves.
Step 3
Add 2oz gin and 2oz lime juice to shaker
Step 4
Strain into your cucumber-lined glass that’s been filled with ice
Step 5
Top with club soda. Gently whack another bunch of fresh mint on your counter to release the aromas, then use as garnish. Enjoy!
