Cucumber-Mint Gimlet
Report
Refreshing and a perfect balance of tart and sweet. But enough about you, let’s make this cucumber and mint gimlet.
Share:
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup cucumber peeled and roughly chopped
- 4-5 large mint leaves
- 2 oz gin recommended; Hendrick’s
- 1 oz lime juiced (about 1/2 a large lime)
- 1 oz simple syrup or light agave or substitute 2 teaspoons superfine sugar
- club soda optional
Instructions
- In a cocktail shaker, muddle the cucumber, mint and syrup until the cucumber are pulped.
- Fill the shaker with ice, then pour in the lime juice and gin. Put the lid on your shaker and shake until the cocktail is thoroughly chilled, about 20 seconds.
- Strain the mixture into a martini glass (I like to double strain). Top with club soda, if desired. Garnish with a sprig of mint and a thin slice or 2 of cucumber.
