It’s an interesting name, but sounds like a delicious drink. The Strawberry-Balsamic Smash seems like the perfect drink to have poolside. It’s cold, refreshing, and fruity.

Ingredients

2 1/2″ lime wedges

2 1/2″ rounds of cucumber

1 fresh hulled strawberry

1 Tbsp. Simple Syrup

1/2 tsp. balsamic vinegar

1/4 cup gin

Preparation

Mash the two limes wedges and strawberry. Add the fruit, balsamic vinegar and Simple Syrup in a 16 oz shaker. Shake 4 to 5 times to release the juices and oils then add the gin. Pour in a rocks glass, filled halfway with ice and garnish with the cucumber.
