CUCUMBER MINT TINI
INGREDIENTS:
1 oz. Gin
1/2 oz. Apple Pucker
1/2 oz. Sweet & Sour
1/2 oz. Simple Syrup
1 handful of mint leaves
1 handful diced cucumber
PREPARATION:
Cucumber and mint? What’s cooler than that? Spa day in a glass, coming right up! In a mixing glass add your mint leaves, cucumbers, sweet & sour and simple syrup and then muddle until the cucumber is pureed. Inhale the soothing mint & cucumber scents as they dance together in your glass. Now add the gin, the apple pucker and a scoop of strained ice~ yes STRAINED! You don’t want any extra water in there to dilute the deliciousness of your cocktail. Shake vigorously for 5 fast seconds, then pour and strain into a nicely chilled martini glass. Now enjoy! A couple of these and you will feel as relaxed as you do after a 90 minute massage. =)
The color is pale yellow with green notes, the smell is summery & refreshing, and the taste? Are you ready to give a spa treatment to your taste buds? Because that’s exactly how this drink tastes! Salute!
