Method
Vodka
Measure
Measure 2 oz premium vodka and set aside.
Citrus & Sweetener
Juice & Syrup
Juice fresh limes to obtain 0.75 oz of lime juice. Measure 0.5 oz simple syrup (1:1).
Fruit & Herbal
Muddle
In a cocktail shaker, add 3 cucumber slices and 6 fresh mint leaves. Gently muddle 6–8 times — press to release cucumber juice and mint oils but avoid shredding the mint to prevent bitterness.
Combine & Shake
Add the measured vodka, lime juice, and simple syrup to the shaker with the muddled cucumber and mint. Fill the shaker with ice (about 1 cup). Secure the lid and shake vigorously for 12–15 seconds until the shaker is cold to the touch and the ingredients are well combined and slightly frothy.
Finish & Garnish
Double-strain the cocktail into a chilled Collins or highball glass filled with fresh ice to remove cucumber bits and mint fragments. Top with 1 oz club soda and gently stir once to integrate.
Garnish with a cucumber wheel on the rim and a sprig of fresh mint. Serve immediately.
