Here at the distillery, hot weather and cucumber cocktails are almost synonymous. The arrival of June this year has brought summer with it, and so also bright, fresh summer cocktails to the distillery. This cocktail is super refreshing, a great choice to sip away hot days.
In the past, we’ve usually favored muddling fresh cucumber into our summer cocktails, to get that true bright veggie flavor. This year our new head bartender, Tony, has created a delicious cucumber puree that brings that same great flavor to cocktails, but with less work in the moment!
