ROYAL CUCUMBER GIMLET🥒⇩ 
Crisp cucumber and lime brighten every sip in this elegant refresher from moodymixologist! Perfectly balanced by the deep botanicals of our Indigo Gin, you won’t want to miss this one 😍

ROYAL CUCUMBER GIMLET 👑
・2 oz Empress 1908 Indigo Gin
・1 to 1½ oz Cucumber Lime Cordial*
・Cucumber Ribbon & Edible Flower, to garnish

METHOD: Combine both ingredients in a cocktail shaker with ice and shake until chilled. Strain into a cocktail glass and garnish with a cucumber ribbon and edible flower. Enjoy!

*To make the cordial, peel and chop 3 mini cucumbers and add them to a medium bowl. Wash and peel 3-4 limes, add the peels to the bowl, and reserve the limes for later. Toss the cucumber and lime peels with 1 cup of sugar. Cover and let sit for at least one hour. The mixture will become thick and syrupy. Squeeze the limes and add the juice to the mixture (¾ cup). Add ½ tsp citric acid and stir, dissolving the remaining sugar. Strain through a fine mesh sieve or layers of cheesecloth. Store the cordial in a closed container in the refrigerator. Enjoy!

Sip responsibly!
