The Gordon’s Cup is a modern classic created by legendary bartender Sasha Petraske at Milk & Honey in New York City. Named after Gordon’s Gin, the cocktail is a simple combination of gin, cucumber, lime, and sugar that proves you don’t need a long list of ingredients to make something incredible. The fresh cucumber adds a cooling quality while the muddled lime provides a bright, vibrant citrus flavor, making it one of the most refreshing gin cocktails you can make. If you’re a gin lover or looking for a cocktail that’s crisp, refreshing, and perfect for warm weather, this one belongs in your rotation. This is such a delicious Summer cocktail. Not a fan of Gin, switch out the spirit. Play with the syrup. Have fun!
