Method

Cocktail

1

Prepare glass

Chill a highball or Collins glass by filling it with ice water while you prepare the drink (about 1–2 minutes). Discard the ice water before pouring.

2

Muddle cucumber

Place the 3 cucumber slices in a cocktail shaker. Gently muddle 6–8 times to release fresh cucumber juice and aroma — don't pulverize into a pulp.

3

Build the cocktail

Add 2 oz Crop Organic Cucumber Vodka, 0.75 oz fresh lemon juice, and 0.5 oz simple syrup to the shaker with the muddled cucumber. Fill the shaker halfway with ice (about 4–6 medium ice cubes).

4

Shake

Shake vigorously for 10–12 seconds until the outside of the shaker is well-chilled and slightly frosty.

5

Strain & top

Discard the chilled water from your glass and fill it with fresh ice. Double-strain the shaken mixture into the prepared glass over the fresh ice (use a fine-mesh strainer to remove cucumber bits). Top with 2 oz club soda, gently stir once to combine.

6

Garnish & serve

Thread a cucumber ribbon and a lemon wheel on a cocktail pick or float the cucumber ribbon inside the glass and rest the lemon wheel on the rim. Serve immediately.
