Recipe

 Serves: 2

Ingredients:

  • 250ml BWG Cucumber Punch

  • 75ml Vodka

  • 50ml Lime Cordial

  • 1 Tablespoon simple syrup

  • 200ml Soda Water

Preparation:

  1. Add all of the ingredients except for the soda water to a small jug. 

  2. Stir well and leave in the refrigerator for an hour to chill. 

  3. Put some crushed ice into 2 whiskey tumblers. 

  4. Take out the chilled jug from the refrigerator and add the soda water. 

  5. Stir the contents gently for about 5 seconds. 

  6. Pour into the glasses and add a slice of cucumber and lime for garnish. 

 

Recipe Notes

If you want to jazz the drink up, try adding a few dashes of orange bitters, lavender bitters or grapefruit bitters. Unlike a regular Vodka Soda, you won’t tire of this drink after a couple of sips.

A little fresh lime juice and a touch of simple syrup is all you need to shake your cucumber vodka into a refreshing Gimlet. Lime and cucumber are a natural match, with the cucumber softening the acidic lime juice and the lime adding brightness to the mellow cucumber. A classic Gimlet is a celebration of citrus, but this one is a brand new, balanced drink.
