Sadly, tomorrow is the last day of Summer. It’s a little overcast in my neck of the woods, but I am determined to send the season out in style. We are grilling this evening and I have the ingredients on hand for the perfect end-of-Summer cocktail.

I recently sipped on a Cucumber Martini when my Doll Rebecca whipped up a batch during our vacation to Martha’s Vineyard. It’s the perfect drink for a warm day, crisp and refreshing. Peep the mixology.

Cucumber Martini

• 2 oz. vodka
• 3 slices of cucumber
• 1/2 oz. simple syrup
• Lemon or lime

The Mixology. Muddle the cucumber really well in shaker. Add vodka, simple syrup, and lemon. You can substitute for lime. Add ice and shake well. Strain into a martini glass and enjoy.

Chin, chin!

Until Then,
