Ingredients and Substitutions

• Cucumber: I like English cucumbers. But any variety is fine. Blend it up and strain it. (Here’s my favorite little blender.)

• Herbs: A few sprigs of whatever fresh herbs you have—mint, basil, thyme, parsley, anything.

• Vodka: If you don’t like vodka, feel free to use gin or tequila. Or skip it if you’re making a mocktail (details below).

• Lime: The juice goes into the spritz mixture. And the peel goes into the herb simple syrup. This adds a bright splash of acidity. Lemon can also get the job done.

• Sparkling water: Sparkling water, club soda, seltzer, even Prosecco will work. You just want something fizzy and effervescent.

Can I Make this Cucumber Herb Garden Spritz into a Mocktail?

Definitely! You can simply leave out the alcohol or replace it another liquid from the ingredient list.

Can I Make this Cucumber Herb Garden Spritz a Batch Cocktail?

Totally. Scale up the amounts as needed. In a resealable container, combine the vodka, cucumber juice, lime juice, and herb garden simple syrup. The sparkling water must be added at the time of serving.
