When vegetable cocktails come to mind you might think of a Cesar or a Bloody Mary, however this cucumber mojito by blogger Cookie and Kaite takes a refreshingly new take on the traditionally minty beverage. This would be an ideal beverage to serve up at a summer party.
Making this cucumber mojito is simple and stress-free. The ingredients are similar to a conventional mojito including fresh items such as mint, club soda, white rum and cane sugar with the addition of lime and cucumber. The cucumber is muddled along with the mint to give a subtle cooling flavor that is also deliciously refreshing. Everything is poured into a tall glass and garnished with fresh mint leaves and more cucumber slices. This artisan spin on the popular cocktail shows how consumers are customizing their drinks to add new and exciting flavors.
