• Ice
• 25ml Simple syrup*
• Cucumber ribbon (for garnish)

Simple Syrup Ingredients:

1. Muddle cucumber slices and mint leaves in a cocktail shaker.
2. Add Seedlip Garden 108, simple syrup*, lime juice and ice to the shaker.
3. Shake and double strain into a coupe glass, and garnish with cucumber ribbon.
