Pretty Girl Mojito
By the Glass (Highball)
Ingredients:
- 3 Cucumber Slices
- 1/2 Cup Fresh Mint Leaves
- 1/2 Freshly Squeezed Lime
- 1/2 oz Simple Syrup
- 2 oz Bombay Dry Gin
- 4 oz Club Soda
Instructions:
1. Start by dropping the fresh mint leaves into your highball glass. Muddle them with purpose, releasing that crisp, refreshing aroma.
2. Add the first cucumber slice and muddle it until the juices blend with the mint. Repeat with the second slice, ensuring the flavors come together seamlessly.
3. Squeeze half a lime directly into the glass, letting the sharp citrus elevate the coolness of the cucumber and mint.
4. Pour in half an ounce of simple syrup, adding just the right touch of sweetness to balance the flavors.
5. Fill the glass with ice cubes, packing them in to keep your drink ice-cold and refreshing.
6. Pour in two ounces of Bombay Dry Gin, allowing the spirit to infuse with the muddled mix.
7. Top off the glass with club soda, leaving just a finger's width of space at the top. Give it a good stir, blending everything into a crisp and invigorating cocktail.
Serving Instructions:
Glassware: Serve in a highball glass, keeping it sleek and stylish.
Garnish: Finish with a cucumber slice and two fresh mint leaves perched on the rim. Serve with flair and enjoy.
