Instructions

The Emerald Oasis is a refreshing and visually stunning cocktail that features the sweet melon notes of Midori, balanced with tart lime juice and complemented by the botanicals of gin. This drink is perfect for a hot summer day or as a vividly colored centerpiece for a festive gathering. Ingredients: - 2 oz Midori melon liqueur - 1 oz gin (preferably a botanical gin like Hendrick's) - 1 oz freshly squeezed lime juice - 1/2 oz simple syrup (adjust sweetness to taste) - 1 oz cucumber juice (freshly juiced or blended and strained cucumber) - Fresh mint leaves for muddling and garnish - Cucumber slice for garnish - Ice Type of Glass: - Highball glass Instructions: 1. In the bottom of a shaker, gently muddle a few mint leaves to release their aroma and oils. 2. Add Midori, gin, lime juice, simple syrup, and cucumber juice to the shaker. 3. Fill the shaker with ice, put the lid on tightly, and shake vigorously until the outside of the shaker feels cold (about 15-20 seconds). 4. Strain the mixture into a highball glass filled with ice, using a fine mesh strainer to remove any small bits of mint. 5. Garnish with a sprig of fresh mint and a thin slice of cucumber either placed on the rim of the glass or floated on top of the cocktail. 6. Serve immediately and enjoy the crisp, refreshing flavors of the Emerald Oasis. This drink's combination of cool cucumber and mint with the sweetness of Midori and the complexity of gin creates an innovative, thirst-quenching cocktail that doesn't need club soda to sparkle.
