Method
Gin
Muddle
Place 3 thin cucumber slices into a cocktail shaker. Add 0.5 oz simple syrup and 0.5 oz fresh lime juice. Gently muddle 6–8 times to release cucumber aroma and juice without pulverizing (you want fragrance, not large bits).
Build and shake
Add 2 oz Hendrick's Gin to the shaker. Fill the shaker with ice (about 1 cup) to chill the mixture. Secure the lid and shake vigorously for 10–12 seconds until the outside of the shaker becomes cold and slightly frosted.
Strain
Double strain the cocktail into a chilled Collins or highball glass filled with fresh ice using a Hawthorne and fine mesh strainer to keep out cucumber solids.
Serve immediately while cold. Optionally, for a slightly more floral profile, express the oil from a lime peel over the drink and drop the peel in.
