Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Refreshing Cucumber Gin Cocktail.
Step 1
Start by placing three ice cubes into a pint glass. Next, add four thick slices of fresh cucumber to the glass. Drizzle in a dash of lime juice and a dash of simple syrup, then muddle everything together for about ten seconds. You want those cucumber pieces to release their juicy goodness!
Step 2
Now, fill the pint glass about three-quarters full with ice. Pour in two ounces of gin and one ounce of elderflower liqueur over the ice. Give it a gentle shake to mix the flavors beautifully, then strain the mixture into a cocktail glass.
Step 3
For a delightful touch, add one or two small pieces of the muddled cucumber into the glass. Garnish your cocktail with a slice of cucumber on the rim and finish it off with a splash of club soda for that refreshing fizz. Serve it with a straw and enjoy!
