What Is Cucumber Infused Vodka?

This is my auntie Shelia’s favorite drink! I can see why. Recreating and making it homemade is so simple, which is always a plus! It’s filled with fresh mint and English cucumbers. It can be a perfect happy hour drink. And just like that, “the best-flavored vodka” you will ever taste.

Ingredients

Handmade Vodka Making a cucumber cocktail can be pretty exciting, especially if you have some smooth-tasting vodka. I recommend higher-quality brands such as Tito’s Vodka or Taaka Vodka. This is the best way to enjoy this drink.
Fresh Lemon or Fresh Lime Juice—To achieve the desired flavor, you can add a squeeze of lime juice and a lime wedge to make things much more flavorful.
Club Soda- It can be used in this recipe, but if you don’t have it, you can use sparkling water.
Cucumbers—I use whatever cucumbers I can get my hands on. I keep leftovers in the fridge. Here are a few to choose from: Armenian, English, Japanese, Persian, pickle, or original cucumbers.
Ice—simply grab some ice from the fridge. If you don’t like ice, don’t use it.
