Method

Directions

1

Prepare the Cucumber

Wash the cucumber thoroughly under cold water. Cut off the ends and slice it into thin rounds.

2

Muddle Mint and Cucumber

In a mixing glass or shaker, add the sliced cucumber and fresh mint leaves. Muddle them together gently to release their juices and aromas.

3

Mix the Base

Add the lime juice, honey, and salt to the muddled cucumber and mint mixture. Stir well until the honey dissolves completely.

4

Combine with Soda Water

Fill a serving glass with ice cubes. Strain the cucumber and mint mixture over the ice, then top it off with soda water. Stir gently to combine.

5

Garnish and Serve

Garnish with additional mint leaves and cucumber slices if desired. Serve immediately to enjoy the refreshing and subtly salty flavor.
