Fresh, green and cooling, the Nordic Green tastes like a summer garden right after the rain. Cucumber, lime and mint: three of the most refreshing flavors there are.

Gin 34 Nordic London Dry ties them together. Its juniper gives structure, while basil and thyme in the botanical blend echo the fresh herbs in the glass. The result is crisp, clean and wonderfully balanced.

Green, crisp and refreshingly simple.

How to make it

Chill a coupe glass.

Add Gin 34 Nordic London Dry, lime juice, cucumber juice and simple syrup (if using) to a shaker.

Fill with ice and shake for about 12 seconds.

Double strain into the chilled coupe and garnish with a mint sprig.

From the Master Blender

Make the cucumber juice just before serving: blend a peeled cucumber and strain it through a fine sieve. It loses its bright green color and fresh taste within the hour.
