After making my dill cucumber relish I had some leftover cucumber juice to use. I decided a mixed drink was in order. A super refreshing drink!
I am not sure what you would call it. It isn't quite a mojito because we used vodka. I am not exactly an expert on mixed drinks. If there are any bartenders out there that know if this drink is called anything, let me know. For now, I am going to name it a "Cucumber Chill".
No matter what it is called, it went down smooth.
CUCUMBER CHILL
2 cup cucumber juice
1 cup vodka
1/2 cup mint simple syrup*
1/2 cup lime juice
fresh mint leaves
lots of ice
Shake it all together. Pour and enjoy.
*Lots of mint, like 2 cups, 1 cup sugar and 1 cup water. Bring to a boil. Boil for two minutes. Turn off heat, cover and let steep. Chill in refrigerator and you are ready for any mojito or "cucumber chill" urge that comes your way.
