Cocktail Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Glass

    Start by chilling a highball glass or a large cocktail glass by filling it with ice water. Let it sit while you prepare the cocktail.

  2. 2

    Mix the Ingredients

    In a cocktail shaker filled with ice, combine the London Dry Gin, Elderflower Liqueur, and Fresh Lemon Juice. Shake gently for about 10-15 seconds until well mixed and chilled.

  3. 3

    Strain and Serve

    Empty the ice water from the chilled glass. Strain the mixture from the shaker into the glass over fresh ice.

  4. 4

    Add Tonic and Garnish

    Top the drink with tonic water, gently stir to combine. Garnish with the cucumber slices, either floating on top or on the rim of the glass.
