Ingredients
- 1/4 cucumber, cubed
- 1/4 cup gin
- 1/8 cup simple syrup
- 1/8 cup pasteurised egg white
- 1 lemon, juiced
- 1-2 tablespoons elderflower cordial
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
- 6 strips of cucumber to decorate
Method
- Put the cucumber, lemon juice, thyme and cordial in your shaker and muddle with a muddler or the clean end of a rolling pin. Try to get the juice out of the cucumber. Alternatively you can grate the cucumber on the large holes of a box grater and use your hands to squeeze the juice into your shaker.
- Add the gin, simple syrup and egg white and half fill the shaker with fresh ice.
- Shake vigorously until a frost forms on the shaker then strain into two chilled martini glasses (or use small elegant flutes).
- Decorate with strips of cucumber and a sprig of thyme.
