Paradise Cove

Cocktail of the Day: Green Garden Cocktail

Ingredients:
1 large cucumber, peeled and diced
2-3 tbsp water
3 oz vodka or gin
2 oz elderflower liqueur (we used )
2 oz lime juice (freshly squeezed)
1 1/2 oz simple syrup (or more to taste)
For garnish: cucumber ribbons and/or chamomile

Add cucumber to a blender with water and blend until smooth. Strain through a fine mesh sieve and discard the pulp.
Fill a cocktail shaker halfway with ice. Add 4-6 oz cucumber juice (depends on how much cucumber flavor you want) and all remaining ingredients. Shake well, then strain into 2 cocktail glasses.
To make the cucumber garnish, use a peeler to peel thin strips of a mini cucumber. Accordion fold the cucumber strip and place on a cocktail pick.
