Preparation

1

Chill Your Glass

Start by chilling your glass. You can do this by filling it with ice water or placing it in the freezer for a few minutes.

2

Prepare the Garnishes

Slice the lime into wedges and cucumber into thin slices. Set aside the fresh mint leaves.

3

Mix the Ingredients

Once the glass is chilled, remove it from the freezer or discard the ice water. Fill the glass with fresh ice cubes. Pour 2 oz of gin over the ice, followed by 4 oz of tonic water.

Garnishing

4

Add Garnishes

Gently stir the drink to combine. Squeeze a lime wedge into the drink and add the cucumber slices and mint leaves for garnish.

5

Final Touch

For an extra aroma, lightly slap the mint leaves between your palms and place them on top of the drink.
