1 small lime, cut into 8 wedges
3 or 4 cucumber slices
3/4 oz (22ml) simple syrup
2 oz (60 ml) gin
a sprinkling of kosher salt
a sprinkling of fresh cracked black pepper
Combine the lime wedges, cucumber, simple syrup, and gin in a cocktail shaker and muddle to extract the juice from the lime without pulverizing the fruit. Fill the shaker with ice and give it 5 to 6 good shakes. Open the shaker and pour its contents back and forth, separating the lime and cucumber slices from the ice and cocktail; pour the lime and cucumber into a frozen rocks glass, then top off the ice and liquid. (The muddled lime and cucumber should be at the bottom of the glass; if need be, push the solids to the bottom.) Add a cocktail straw and sprinkling of salt and pepper
“Sasha was definitively known for reviving lost culture. While he brought back an era of cocktail creation that could not possibly be reinvented without some overlap of the past and present, his intention was to reintroduce classic cocktails made with eth best contemporary ingredients. A true Sasha original, this cocktail can be a morning kickstarter, a hangover remedy, or a refreshing nightcap. Cucumber, lime, sugar and salt cover all the bases”
