Yield 6 glasses

Number Of Ingredients 9

3/4 cup sugar
2 cups grated English cucumber (about 1 cucumber), plus cucumber wedges, for garnish

12 ounces cranberry juice (no sugar added)
a few good splashes of club soda or perrier
1/2 cup fresh lime juice (from about 4 limes)

Cucumber Cape Codder was surprisingly good! I'm usually not a fan of gin, but this cocktail has just the right amount of gin flavor. Cucumber and cranberry juice really shine through.

Not a fan of gin so I was hesitant to try this. But I'm glad I did! The cucumber and cranberry juice really balance out the gin flavor.

Cucumber Cape Codder! What a refreshing cocktail! My friends loved it! The combination of cucumber slices, gin, and cranberry juice is a real winner. Next time I will add a squeeze of lime for extra citrusy kick.
