Are you looking for a refreshing cocktail to ease your thirst or serve at a summer pool party? These easy 15 cucumber cocktails are just the ticket!
Cucumbers are one of the top five green garden vegetables used by Americans.
It’s in the same family as watermelon and pumpkin but is considered a veggie.
It’s not a stranger in your kitchen as cucumbers are used in creating delicious salad, salsas, juice, and even soups.
But on my list today, cucumbers are added to freshen your favorite cocktails and make some twists and tweaks to make them taste even better.
If you want to serve an eye-catching cucumber cocktail, I recommend Watermelon Cucumber Cooler and Cucumber & Raspberry Mojito because of their nice-looking color.
Cucumber Martini With Melon & Mint and Cucumber Mojito are your drinks if you prefer deeper cucumber flavors, as both recipes get the cucumbers muddled to produce juices.
And for a spicy drink with a kick, #7 is your drink of choice but requires a bit of time to make a jalapeño-infused tequila.
So let’s dive into the list to discover some more delightful cucumber cocktails to try on!
Margarita has been a classic cocktail but having cucumber on it makes a difference.
It’s a mild cocktail that’s ideal when you need to freshen up or just chill out.
