THE BEACH JULEP

N˚1 IN OUR ST. REGIS COCKTAIL SERIES.

Brought to you by our favorite bartenders at the St. Regis Punta Mita in Mexico! Everyone loves a good mint julep, but these end-of-summer months call for something a little lighter and more refreshing! Made with vodka, basil and cucumber instead of the traditional mint and whiskey, this beach “julep” is as refreshing as they come. Enjoy!

INGREDIENTS

1 dash club soda

1 oz simple syrup

1 ½ oz vodka

1 fresh lime wedge

3 cucumber slices

4 basil leaves

Ice

PREPARATION

1. Add the soda water and simple syrup to a shaker.

2. Add in the cucumber slices, lime and basil and muddle lightly.

3. Add in the vodka.

4. Shake vigorously and strain into a mason jar.

5. Garnish with fresh basil and lime.
