Cucumber Thyme Highball

A highball that’s perfectly fresh and cooling.

“This cocktail was inspired by gardening. I wanted to create a cocktail that paid homage to seemingly humble ingredients like cucumber and thyme, which can easily be grown at home,” says Miguel Munoz, bar director of Renwick Hospitality Group. Together, cucumber and thyme create a highball that’s perfectly fresh and cooling.

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 oz. gin
  • 3/4 oz. fresh lime juice
  • 3/4 oz. thyme syrup
  • 3/4 oz. fresh cucumber juice
  • 3 dashes black pepper
  • 1 oz. club soda, to top
  • Tools:shaker, strainer, fine-mesh strainer
  • Glass:Collins
  • Garnish:thyme sprig and cucumber slice

Preparation

Add all of the ingredients except the club soda to a shaker with ice and shake vigorously. Double‑strain back into the small tin, add the club soda, and gently swirl to combine. Pour over fresh ice in a glass and garnish.
