Instructions

  1. Step 1: Peel and dice 1/2 cup cucumber, then juice it using a citrus press or fine-mesh strainer to yield 1 oz fresh cucumber juice.
  2. Step 2: In a shaker filled with ice, combine 2 oz vodka, 1 oz cucumber juice, and 1/2 oz lime juice; shake vigorously for 15 seconds until chilled and diluted.
  3. Step 3: Strain into a chilled coupe glass, top with 3 oz soda water, and gently stir once to integrate bubbles without losing effervescence.
  4. Step 4: Garnish with a thin cucumber slice resting on the rim and a lime wheel, pressing the lime slightly to release oils over the drink.
