Gulfstream Refresher
Blanco tequila, Aperol, lime, and muddled Persian cucumber, with mint on top. Bitter, cool, and gone faster than you planned.
Method
Muddle the cucumber slices in the bottom of a shaker until they give up their juice.
Add the tequila, Aperol, simple syrup, lime juice, and ice, and shake until cold.
Strain into a glass and garnish with the mint sprig.
Notes from the line
Persian cucumbers are thin-skinned and less watery than the big ones. They are worth finding.
