Steps:
- Make the mint simple syrup: In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the water, sugar, and roughly chopped mint leaves. Bring to a low boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes, until the sugar is fully dissolved and the mint is fragrant. Remove from the heat and let cool for 5-10 minutes. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve. Store remaining mint syrup in the refrigerator for up to 1 month.
- In a cocktail shaker, combine the cucumber rounds, lime juice, whole mint leaves, and 1 tablespoon of the mint simple syrup. Muddle for 1-2 minutes, until the cucumber and mint have released their flavors, but are not mushy.
- Pour in the vodka and fill the shaker halfway with ice. Shake vigorously for 30 seconds.
- Fill a Collins glass with ice and pour in the strained cocktail.
- Garnish with the cucumber ribbons.
- Enjoy!

Tips:
- Choose the right cucumbers. English cucumbers are best for this recipe because they are seedless and have a mild flavor. If you use a different type of cucumber, be sure to peel and seed it before slicing.
- Use fresh mint. Fresh mint is essential for this recipe. Do not use dried mint, as it will not have the same flavor.
- Chill the ingredients before using. This will help to make the drink more refreshing.
- Garnish with a mint sprig. This will add a pop of color and flavor to the drink.

This mint cucumber and vodka cocktail is a refreshing and easy-to-make drink that is perfect for any occasion. It is made with just a few simple ingredients and can be customized to your liking. If you are looking for a delicious and refreshing cocktail to enjoy, this recipe is a great option.
