Do you like cucumber?

‍

I love it. But I find it to be a rather polarizing flavor. Especially when it comes to cocktails.

‍

Personally, I like a cucumber drink as long as it’s not sweet. To me cucumber is fresh, so I want it paired with ingredients that are fresh as well.

‍

This Cucumber Mint Collins fits that bill.

‍

To me, the combination of mint, lime and cucumber shouts total refreshment, while the club soda offers that hydrating factor that makes this cocktail a good one for summer. And since August in the south is one of the hottest and most humid months of the year, this is one drink I’ll be reaching for all month long!

‍

But the best part about it is that it’s super flexible. If you don’t like cucumber, simply leave it out. If you’re not a Gin drinker, swap it for Vodka. And if you don’t drink alcohol, make it a mocktail by skipping the booze!
