Build

1 Cucumber Slice 1/2oz Simple Syrup 1 1/2oz Plantation 3 Stars Rum 1/2tsp Giffard Menthe-Pastille 4oz Cold Dry Sparkling Wine 1 Lime Twist 3/4oz Lime Juice

Method

In a shaker, gently muddle the cucumber with the simple syrup. Add the remaining ingredients (except the sparkling wine) and shake with ice. Strain into a chilled coupe. Pour in the sparkling wine, and quickly dip the barspoon into the glass to gently mix the wine with the cocktail. Express the lime twist over the drink, then place it into the drink.
