Batch it For a party of 4–20
Makes 8 drinks, about 35 oz · 1050 ml before ice.
| Amount | Ingredient |
|---|---|
| 16 oz · 480 ml | Vodka |
| 8 oz · 240 ml | Lime Juice |
| 4 oz · 120 ml | Simple Syrup |
| Fresh Cucumber | |
| Mint Leaves | |
| 7 oz · 210 ml | Cold water, for dilution (approx.) |
The water stands in for the melt from shaking: about 25% for a shaken drink. It is an approximation, so taste and adjust. Chill the batch at least 2 hours and pour over fresh ice.
Use a 2 liter pitcher, or split it between two 1 liter bottles.
Add at serving: top each glass with soda water. Bubbles go flat in a batch, so they stay out of it.
