Virgin Cucumber Gimlet is a bit of an old-time favorite. You may have seen cocktail recipes that use cucumber gin to add flavor in the past, but this recipe doesn't call for any sort of distilled alcohol. Instead the addition of fresh cucumbers create that crisp and cool taste.
In a shaker, muddle cucumber and sugar until the cucumbers release their juices.
Add lime juice and simple syrup then fill with ice cubes. Shake well.
Strain into a high-ball glass filled with ice cubes, top off with club soda and stir gently.
Recipe Note
The Gimlet is a classic cocktail that has been around for decades, and its roots date back centuries ago! That's why many variations such as this recipe have been invented.
