CUCUMBAR MINT GIN COOLERS

The weather is getting nice, the days are long, (which means the evenings are really long), and my hectic schedule is begging me to drink a cocktail more often.


My favorite part is the pretty green color they turn. It’s not scary green, but fresh, healthy green! Like I feel like I am drinking a green juice with booze- they must neutralize each other
