The Emerald Enigma is a refreshing and innovative cocktail that blends the crispness of cucumber with the botanicals of gin, elevated by a hint of exotic yuzu and a whisper of mint for a drink that's as intriguing as it is refreshing. Perfect for sipping on a warm afternoon or as a sophisticated evening starter, this cocktail combines freshness, zesty brightness, and a touch of elegance. Ingredients: - 2 oz. cucumber-infused gin (to infuse, add sliced cucumber to your favorite gin and let it sit for 24-48 hours in a cool, dark place) - 1/2 oz. yuzu juice (if unavailable, substitute with half lemon, half lime juice) - 1/4 oz. simple syrup - 4-6 fresh mint leaves - 2 oz. tonic water - Ice - Cucumber slice and mint sprig for garnish Instructions: 1.
