Basically a gin sour.

  • 2 parts gin
  • 1 part lemon juice
  • 1 part cucumber simple syrup that I made using powdered sugar instead of normal sugar because that's what I had laying around
  • mint garnish

A summery drink to celebrate another summer conquered (desertposting).

Looks refreshing!

How do you do the cucumber syrup? Just blending everything?

    I made simple syrup, then while it was warm I added a (scrubbed and rinsed) cucumber which had gone through the food processor. Threw it in the fridge for half a day, then I pressed the slurry through a cheesecloth. It's a lovely color.
