Salted Cucumber & Apple Gimlet
Crisp, exceptionally refreshing, and perfectly balanced. The pinch of salt cuts the sharp acidity of the lime and coaxes out the bright flavors of the fresh apple and cucumber.

1.5 oz 1000 Piers Coastal Carolina Gin
2 oz of salted cucumber, apple simple syrup
1 oz Fresh Lime Juice
Garnish: Thin cucumber wheel dipped in a course salt
Method
Build: Add the gin, salted cucumber, apple simple syrup and lime juice to a shaker
Shake: Add ice to the shaker and shake hard for 10 seconds.
Pour: Fine strain through a mesh sieve into a rocks glass with ice to ensure a perfectly smooth texture.
Garnish: Salted Cucumber slice on the side of the glass
To make the simple syrup, peel 2 whole English cucumbers and juice 2 granny smith apples. Add to a blender with 5 tsps of salt, 32 Fl oz of water and 22oz sugar. Blend really well and then strain out any solids.
