CUCUMBER MARTINI
Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- Put the thick cucumber slices in a cocktail shaker. Use a muddler or a wooden spoon to muddle , or crush, the cucumber slices a bit to bring out more of their flavor.
- Pour in the vodka and the dry vermouth .
- Swirl just a bit to combine, then add the ice.
- Put the top on the cocktail shaker and shake vigorously for at least 30 seconds. (It's important that you shake for this length of time.) This not only mixes the ingredients but also melts some of the ice into the cocktail to soften its edges and blend the flavors.
- Strain the mixture into a martini glass.
- Garnish with thin slices of fresh cucumber and serve.
