Preparation
-
Using a muddler or the handle of a wooden spoon, mash two 1/2″ lime wedges, two 1/2″ rounds of cucumber, 1 fresh hulled strawberry, 1 Tbsp. and 1/2 tsp. (to taste) of our Strawberry Dark Balsamic Vinegar, and simple syrup if desired, in a 16-oz. mixing glass or a cocktail shaker 4–5 times just to release juices and oils. Add 1/4 cup gin. Transfer to an Old Fashioned glass. Fill halfway with crushed ice, stir, then mound more crushed ice on top. Garnish with a cucumber round.
