Dexy’s Midnight Runners
Green Well
The Green Well’s Dexy’s Midnight Runners is a fresh take on a classic English summer cocktail. Anchored by the Pimm’s No. 1 — which, apparently, the Brits will put in anything from warm apple juice to champagne — Dexy’s tastes a little spicy in coordination with the ginger beer. But not overly so: The cucumber vodka cuts a fresh path for the essential oils and aromas of the mint to shine through, as long as you remember to slap that mint!
Ingredients:
1 1/2 oz. Pimm’s No. 1
1 oz. Gypsy Vodka
1 oz. Pearl Cucumber Vodka
1/2 oz. agave nectar
1 splash of ginger beer
1 sprig of mint, for garnish
Pour Pimm’s, the vodkas and agave nectar into an iced mixer. Shake thoroughly, then pour mixture into a coupe. Splash with a hit of ginger beer. Slap the mint leaf between your palms to release aromas, then garnish on top.
