Description

A refreshing cocktail made with cucumber, tequila, and lime juice.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 teaspoons granulated sugar
  • 3 inches English cucumber (or half a Persian cucumber)
  • 2 teaspoons thinly sliced serrano pepper
  • 2 ounces tequila blanco

  3. Add ice to the shaker then close the top and shake vigorously.
  4. Strain the drink into a glass filled with ice. Serve immediately.
