Steps:
- To make the ginger syrup, combine water and sugar in a small sauce pan. Heat over low heat until sugar dissolves and water just starts to simmer. Stir and remove from heat. Let sit for at least 1 hour. Then strain, saving both the syrup and the crystalized ginger.
- To make the cucumber vodka, peel and dice one cucumber. Place in a medium sized nonreactive container. Pour vodka over cucumber pieces, cover, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour (I let mine sit overnight).
- To make Cucumber Ginger Fizzes, fill each glass with ice. Place 1/6th of remaining cucumber slices and 1 tablespoon of crystalized ginger into each glass. Pour ¼ cup cucumber-vodka and 2 tablespoons ginger syrup into each glass and gentle stir a few times. Squeeze the lime juice of one wedge into the glass then drop lime wedge in. Fill glass with sparkling water and enjoy!

Tips:
- Choose the right cucumbers: Use fresh, unwaxed cucumbers for the best flavor. English cucumbers are a good choice because they have fewer seeds and a thinner skin.
- Chill the ingredients: Chilling the cucumbers, ginger, and sparkling water before making the fizzes will help them stay cold and refreshing.
- Use fresh ginger: Fresh ginger has a more intense flavor than ground ginger. If you don't have fresh ginger, you can use 1/2 teaspoon of ground ginger instead.
- Add other flavors: Feel free to add other flavors to your cucumber ginger fizzes, such as mint, lime, or honey.
- Make them ahead of time: Cucumber ginger fizzes can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.
Conclusion:
Cucumber ginger fizzes are a refreshing and healthy drink that is perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. So next time you're looking for a healthy and delicious drink, give cucumber ginger fizzes a try!
