Ingredients
Method
  1. 1

    In a shaker, gently muddle cucumber slices, mint leaves, and green chili (if using) with lime juice and simple syrup.

    💡 Muddle lightly to release oils and juices, avoid over-muddling the mint.

  2. 2

    Add ice to the shaker and shake briefly to chill.

  3. 3

    Strain into a highball glass filled with fresh ice.

    💡 Double strain if you prefer no chili bits.

  4. 4

    Top with club soda and garnish with a cucumber ribbon and mint sprig.

Bartender's Tip

🍸 Adjust chili to your spice preference; a small sliver provides a pleasant warmth without overwhelming.

Why It Works

Cucumber and mint provide a refreshing base, uplifted by tart lime. A hint of chili stimulates the palate without overpowering.
