For the past couple of weeks, we’ve been exploring cocktails made with fresh fruits and herbs. Several weeks ago, I shared a recipe for a “Ten Grand” and last week one for a “Raspberry Refresher.” This week, you’ll learn how to make a Campari Cucumber Cocktail.
You’ll need:
Juice from a half of lime
Four slices of cucumber
Two teaspoons of sugar
Three ounces of gin
One and half ounces of Campari
Soda water
Two cucumber wheels
Muddle lime juice, cucumber, and sugar in a cocktail shaker. Add ice, gin, and Campari. Shake well and pour into two highball glasses. Add soda to taste. Garnish with cucumber wheels.
Serves two.
Cheers!
