Equipment

  • Cocktail shaker
  • Muddler
  • Fine-mesh strainer
  • Jigger
  • Bar spoon
  • Highball or stemmed glass
  • Ice cubes

Ingredients

  • 2 oz vodka
  • 3-4 cucumber slices
  • 1 fresh mint sprig
  • 0.5 oz simple syrup add more to taste
  • 0.5 oz fresh lime juice
  • 2 oz prosecco
  • 2 oz sparkling water
  • ice cubes
  • cucumber slice and mint sprig for garnish

Instructions

  • Add cucumber slices and mint sprig to cocktail shaker. Muddle gently.
  • Add vodka, lime juice, simple syrup, and ice. Shake for 10–12 seconds.
  • Strain into a tall glass filled with ice.
  • Top with prosecco and sparkling water. Stir gently.
  • Garnish with extra cucumber slice and mint sprig. Serve cold.

Notes

Add more syrup for sweetness or extra lime for sharpness. Chilling the glass keeps the drink colder. Cava or dry sparkling wine works instead of prosecco if needed.
