Cucumber Lime Cooler
Sunday, September 25th, 2011 | Recipies, Uncategorized | No Comments
This recipe was inspired by a fabulous cucmber lime martini I had at Colonie, the hottest new restaurant to open in Brooklyn Heights this past year.
If you don’t have a juicer, you can leave out the juiced cucumber and just use sliced cucumber. This makes more of a refreshing limeade, which is also quite delicious, but less cucumber-y and bright green.
I personally prefer this recipe made with gin. I think it holds up better to the sweetness of St. Germaine - especially good with an herbal gin like Hendrick’s. Last night, though, I made this recipe for my parents’ 40th wedding anniversary and we chose to use vodka, since my mom isn’t a huge gin fan. Either way works!
In a medium sized punch bowl, mix the following over a mixture of ice cubes and small blocks of ice:
- 1 - 1.5L Gin or Vodka (depending on strength desired)
- 1 Bottle St Germaine
- 3 English (hot house) Cucumbers - 2 juiced, 1 sliced thin
- 15 - 18 Limes - juiced
- 2 L Club Soda
Note: To make small blocks of ice, freeze water in small to medium-sized tupperware containers overnight. If you boil the water (then let it cool) before freezing, it will freeze completely clear without bubbles.
