Mix a refreshing Cucumber Smash with gin or vodka, fresh cucumber, lime, and mint. The perfect summer drink.
The Cucumber Smash is the epitome of a refreshing summer cocktail. It combines the cool, watery notes of fresh cucumber with the zesty acidity of lime and the aromatic freshness of mint. It's called a "smash" because the cucumber and mint are muddled directly in the shaker to optimally release their flavors and juices. Whether prepared with the botanical character of gin or the clean neutrality of vodka, the result is always an incredibly invigorating and light drink, perfect for hot days, barbecues, or as an elegant aperitif.
