Cucumber Tequila Soda.

This cucumber tequila soda is wildly refreshing and perfect for summer! Cucumber syrup, fresh lime, mint, tequila and super bubbly soda water make for the most delish, crisp and light drink. 

Thirsty Thursday!!

I am in love with this cucumber tequila soda, which is the most refreshing, bubbly, cooling drink you can make this summer.

It’s light. And it’s pretty! Oh and it tastes phenomenal.

I’ve been making cucumber vodka sodas for years, but this tequila one is taking the cake. Or the cocktail. 

My cucumber vodka sodas use fresh cucumber juice and simple syrup. These tequila sodas take that idea… but I make a cucumber simple syrup. Cucumbers are the syrup!

I’m all about finding ways to use some of my favorite homemade ingredients, like syrups, dressings and more. In Everyday Dinners, I have a sauces and dressings chapter and it’s my meal lifeline.

This is sort of like that! The cucumber syrup, I mean. I first shared it a few weeks ago in this cucumber spritz. It’s definitely my official drink of summer 2024! It’s very refreshing. 

But here’s the thing – a tequila soda with lime is my go-to in general. It is so light and easy. It never makes me feel like garbage. It’s simple!

So this is my second way of showing you how to use this cucumber syrup!! Delish. 

First, I make the cucumber syrup. You can make this a few days ahead of time and store it in the fridge!

I pour some of the syrup over crushed ice and mix it with a bit of tequila. I squeeze in some fresh lime juice too!

Then, I top it off with super bubbly seltzer.  (more…)
