Cooking the dish according to the recipe:
- Slice a cucumber and set aside for serving. Peel the remaining cucumber, cut it in half, and remove the seeds. Blend until smooth, then strain through a fine sieve.
- Fill a highball glass three-quarters full with ice. Add 2 ml of cucumber puree, gin, lime juice, and simple syrup and stir. (To make a simple syrup, simmer equal parts sugar and water in a saucepan until the sugar dissolves, then let cool.) Fill the glass with club soda and stir again. Garnish with the reserved cucumber slices.
