Grapefruit Cucumber Gin Fizz
Cheers to the Weekend by making these Grapefruit Cucumber Gin Fizz! Gin is infused with cucumber and mint and mixed with grapefruit juice and sparkling water.
Ingredients
- 3 small Persian cucumbers thinly sliced
- 1/4 cup fresh mint leaves more for garnish
- 2 cups gin
- 3 large ruby grapefruit juiced
- 1 cup sparkling water
Instructions
- In a pitcher or large jar, add most of the Persian cucumbers (save same for garnish) and mint. Muddle together until broken down, using a wooden spoon or cocktail muddler. Pour in the gin, cover with plastic wrap and place in the fridge for at least 4 hours, or overnight. Strain out the cucumber and mint, discarding, and just reserving the infused gin.
- When ready to make the cocktails, fill 8 short glasses with ice. Pour 1 1/2 ounces infused gin into each glass, add 2 ounces grapefruit juice, and top off with sparkling water. Garnish with sliced cucumber and mint leaves. Enjoy!
