cucumber & gin (or grappa) cocktail

This extremely refreshing cucumber and gin cocktail is the perfect summer drink! Use Italian grappa or Greek tsipouro instead of gin for an interesting twist.
This is a light cocktail, but you can adjust the alcohol quantity to your liking.

'Love the passion in the purity of the presentation. 'Changed my mind about cocktails. If you got a great product already, don't f..k with it, just give it a twist.

I felt like I just been to the moon and back on a turtle!

This is my Go-to summer drink... Minus the sugar and olives. I add tonic water instead

[@josielancaster7095]

Cool

[@robdielemans9189]

that looks pretty tasty, but I don't think it needs the olives though, I even think it would be a better drink without them. And if I were to use tsipouro instead of gin, I'll probably add some allspice berries.

[@luvely1062]

I'll have to try this, I don't like tonic water so this could be made without I'm sure!
Would substituting lemonade be good?

[@TheHungryBites]

Hi, yes lemonade or carbonated water

[@amorphousface2401]

Do the skins make it bitter?

[@TheHungryBites]

If it's persian cucumbers (they're small with smooth surface) their skin is not bitter. If it's another variety it's best to peel them first

[@edwardnyirenda9981]

Can you use a juicer instead of a blender?

[@TheHungryBites]

Yes, I believe you can :)

[@itsjustrenee1320]

Hmm

[@Pederification]

How long does the cucumber water hold ?

[@TheHungryBites]

I would say about 3 days

[@Pederification]

[@tristanlancaster3198]

[@exchangestyle]

No sugar!!!!! 🙄

[@lehmannadventures3439]

Perfecto - minus the olives

[@lengue2001]

The olives are not necessary.

[@TheHungryBites]

no they're not, but they add a nice salty note

[@pl-rc]

It's also a nice garnish

[@jackieks67]

Time to sharpen your knife!

[@antoniq9000]
