Cucumber and Lime Gin Fizz

• 2 slices peeled cucumber, plus 1 unpeeled slice for garnish
• 6 fresh mint leaves
• 2 sprigs fresh cilantro
• 2 teaspoons turbinado sugar
• 1 ounce fresh lime juice
• 2 ounces cucumber-infused gin (such as Hendrick's)
• 3 to 4 ounces club soda

1. Place the peeled cucumber slices, mint, cilantro and sugar in a cocktail shaker and muddle.
2. Add the lime juice and gin.
3. Fill the shaker halfway with ice and shake vigorously for 1 to 2 minutes (this seems like a long time, but it's essential).
4. Fill a cocktail glass with fresh ice.
5. Strain the drink into the glass, top with the club soda and garnish with a cucumber slice.
