Cucumber Dill Martini

Cucumber Dill Martini

Shake up your date night with this refreshing and herbaceous Cucumber Dill Martini. Crisp cucumber and aromatic dill come together for a garden-fresh cocktail that’s as elegant as it is unexpected!

ingredients:

• 5 oz gin

• 1 oz St. Germain liqueur

• 1/3 large cucumber, thinly sliced

• Fresh dill (plus extra for garnish)

• ½ oz simple syrup (optional for a sweeter cocktail—I prefer without!)

Method:

1. Add about two-thirds of the cucumber slices and two leafy dill fronds to a cocktail shaker. Muddle well to release the flavors.

2. Add ice, gin, St. Germain, and simple syrup (if using).

3. Shake vigorously for 30 seconds. Strain into two chilled martini glasses.

4. Garnish with additional cucumber slices and dill fronds.
