Frozen Cucumber Lemonade Cocktail

This cocktail will give you all the warm weather feels. Cooling cucumber, fresh herbs, lemon, and loads of ice blend up into frozen fun.

I’ve dabbled in frozen concoctions in summers past like peach sangria slushies, but this year I’m thinking green.

INGREDIENTS

– Vodka – Fresh Lemon Juice – Simple Syrup  – Fresh Mint, Chopped – Cilantro, chopped – Lemon Zest – Cucumber, chopped – Ice Cubes – Garnishes: Lemon Wheels and Mint Sprigs

I used a combination of simple syrup and freshly squeezed lemon juice to control the sugar content and make sure the finished product is thirst-quenching and not too sweet.

I also added a handful of cilantro along with the mint to amp up the grassy herb flavor and piles of ice achieve that thick, frosty consistency.

Combine all the ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth. Pour into glasses and garnish with a lemon wheel and mint sprig.

Let’s be bold and christen this cocktail the drink of the summer, but don’t let that stop you from enjoying it this spring. So break out the blender, grab the green and start your motors.
