Cucumber Infused Vodka
"Infused liquors are the new creative expression in the world of cocktail mixology, and vodka is the ideal spirit for experimentation, as any number of ingredients easily infuse into this neutral-tasting liquor and shine through with clarity. This infusion is refreshing in summer coolers and summer martinis."
