I suggest the Fraîcheur D'Été cocktail, made with the excellent cucumber-flavored Fou Gin. The flavors that support the gin are watermelon juice, lemon juice and mint syrup. These three ingredients complement each other perfectly.

Ingredients 

  • 2 oz Cucumber gin
  • 1 oz Freshly squeezed watermelon juice
  • 1 oz Lemon juice
  • 0.75 oz Mint syrup
  • Tonic 1642 with cucumber
  • Garnish with a cucumber slice and
    a mint head

Preparation:

  1. Mix ingredients in the base of a shaker
  2. Fill with ice and shake the mixture
  3. Double-strain into a second shaker
  4. Add the emulsifier and make a dry shake
  5. Pour into cooled bowl
  6. Garnish with a cucumber slice and a sprig of mint.

Cheers!
