English Garden

I'll start here with the most delicious cocktail that was served as a "signature cocktail" at my daughter's recent wedding held at Peke's Manor in East Sussex.  A gorgeous summery drink.

Ingredients

1.5 oz gin  Go for something British that is low on botanicals.
.5 oz St Germain elderflower liqueur or elderflower cordial (from Ikea or get the homemade version from Dave's mom Jane. It is delicious!)
2.5 oz apple juice  I make my own from my crazy overproducing apple tree
.25 oz fresh squeezed lime juice
Cucumber ribbons to serve

Method

Put all ingredients except cucumber in shaker with ice and blend well. Put cucumber ribbon in highball glass filled with fresh ice and add cocktail.
