- 3 Fresh Cucumbers (Sliced)
- 2 oz Vodka (Tito’s recommended, but any smooth vodka works)
- 1 oz Simple Syrup
- 1 oz Fresh Lime Juice
- Ice Cubes
- Chili-Salt (to rim the glass)
- Cucumber Wheel (for garnish)
Required Bar Tools
When crafting cocktails at home, the right tools can elevate your experience. Here’s what I recommend:
- Cocktail Shaker – Essential for muddling cucumber and chilling your drink evenly.
- Muddler – To gently crush cucumber slices and release their fresh juices.
- Jigger – For precise measurement of vodka, lime juice, and syrup.
- Strainer – Ensures a smooth pour into the martini glass, keeping seeds and pulp out.
- Martini or Coupe Glass – The best vessel for presentation and sipping pleasure.
Having these tools at hand will make preparing your Garden of Eden cocktail effortless and enjoyable.
