For 1 glass you’ll need: 1 part gin, ½ part Lillet Blonde (or dry vermouth), 1 part elderflower syrup (from an organic grocer or see the recipe in Home Made), a lot of ice, sparkling water, and a stick of cucumber.
Combine the gin, Lillet, and elderflower syrup in a glass filled with ice.
Stir well with the cucumber stick.
Top off with sparkling water and serve with the cucumber stick. The taste of the cucumber will seep in and that makes this a wonderfully refreshing drink.
