- 2 oz cucumber juice
- ½ oz elderflower syrup or cordial
- 1 oz lime juice
- ½ cup dry sparkling wine or soda water
- Cucumber ribbon and/or edible flowers for garnish
Instructions
- Prepare glass: Fill your wine glass to the brim with ice, then add the elderflower syrup or cordial to start the base of your mocktail.
- Add juices: Pour in the fresh cucumber juice and lime juice over the ice and syrup for a bright and fresh flavor combo.
- Top with bubbles: Gently pour in the dry sparkling non-alcoholic wine or soda water. Stir carefully to mix without disturbing the bubbles for a light effervescent drink.
- Garnish and serve: Add cucumber ribbons, edible flowers, or lime wheels as a garnish to enhance presentation and serve immediately.
Notes
- Cucumber juice can be purchased or easily made by blending cucumber with water and straining if no juicer is available.
- Elderflower syrup or cordial can be substituted, with low sugar versions available to reduce sweetness.
- Dry non-alcoholic wine lends a more adult, celebratory flavor; soda water is a milder alternative.
- Garnishes like cucumber ribbons, lime wheels, and edible flowers add aesthetic appeal and fresh aroma.
