Green Summer Instructions
Green Summer is a refreshing and vibrant cocktail that is perfect for the hot summer months. Made with a combination of fresh ingredients, this cocktail is sure to cool you down and lift your spirits.
To make the Green Summer cocktail, start by gathering all your ingredients. Once you have everything ready, begin by muddling fresh mint leaves in a cocktail shaker. This will release the fragrant oils and flavors of the mint.
Next, add freshly squeezed lime juice to the shaker. Lime juice adds a tangy and citrusy element to the cocktail, balancing out the sweetness of the other ingredients.
Now it's time to add the star ingredient - cucumber. Peel and slice a cucumber before adding it to the shaker. Cucumber adds a refreshing and crisp flavor to the cocktail.
To sweeten the cocktail, add simple syrup to taste. Simple syrup is a mixture of equal parts sugar and water, dissolved over heat. It adds a touch of sweetness without overpowering the other flavors.
Once all the ingredients are in the shaker, add ice and shake vigorously. This will help to chill the cocktail and mix all the flavors together.
Strain the cocktail into a glass filled with ice. Garnish with a fresh mint sprig and a slice of cucumber to add an extra element of freshness and visual appeal.
Now sit back, relax, and enjoy your Green Summer cocktail. Cheers to a refreshing and delicious summer drink!
Best served in a Old-Fashioned Glass.
