Gordon's Cup
Thank you Bon Appetit! This summer drink is refreshing and DELICIOUS. Definitely a new staple at the Clarks. It tastes very complex, but super easy to make.
1 small lime cut into 8 wedges
2 x 1/1" thick rounds of peeled cucumber
1/4 c gin
2 TBSP simple syrup ( 1 to 1 water to sugar bring to a boil for 1 min and cool)
ice for shaker and glass
Pinch of sea salt (optional)
Place 3 wedges and the cucumber rounds into the shaker. Muddle with a muddler or with a wooden spoon. Add gin and simple syrup and cover with ice. Shake until shaker is iced and very cold. Pour into a glass filled with ice. Add salt if you are using and enjoy. It's GOOD!
