Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Muddle Mint

    In a sturdy glass, place the fresh mint leaves and gently muddle them using a muddler or the back of a spoon. This releases the essential oils and flavor of the mint.

  2. 2

    Add Cucumber

    Add the cucumber slices to the glass with the muddled mint. Gently press them to release their juices without completely pulverizing them.

  3. 3

    Add Gin and Simple Syrup

    Pour in the Blue Coat Gin and simple syrup over the muddled mint and cucumber mixture. Stir gently to combine the ingredients.

  4. 4

    Add Club Soda

    Top off the drink with club soda, adding it slowly to maintain the fizz. Stir gently to incorporate.

Serving

  1. 5

    Garnish and Serve

    Garnish your Gin Fresca with a sprig of fresh mint or an additional cucumber slice, if desired. Serve immediately over ice with a straw.
