Sparkling Cucumber Gimlet
Ingredients
Sparkling Cucumber Gimlet
- 1 oz simple syrup (I make my own sugar free, recipe linked above!)
- 6 cucumber slices
- 1/2 lime, juiced
- 3 oz gin (I use Damrak Virgin Gin, can also use regular or sub vodka)
- 4 oz sparkling water
Garnishes (Optional)
- cucumber slices
- thyme
Instructions
- Muddle your cucumber slices in simple syrup until slightly smashed, then squeeze in your lime juice.
- Pour in your gin and add in ice, then stir with a long spoon until combined.
- Pour into a glass (with or without ice, your call!) using a strainer to ensure you're not getting any ice or cucumber bits.
- Top the drink with sparkling water and garnish with cucumber slices and fresh thyme if you'd like. Cheers!
