Method

  1. Wrap a ribbon of cucumber around the inside of 2 highball glasses. Fill with ice cubes and mint.
  2. In a jug, mix together the Summer Cup, sugar syrup, lime juice and soda. Divide between the glasses and serve.
  • Tip: You can buy ready-made sugar syrup, but it’s also easy to make at home and lasts for up to a week in the fridge. Simply heat together equal quantities of caster sugar and water in a saucepan until the sugar has dissolved, then leave to cool at room temperature before using.
