A NEFT Vodka Barrel and a glass of Cucumber Martini on a bar counter.

Cucumber Martini

A closeup of a Sour, Year Round Cucumber Martini drink against a dark background.

Cucumbers are an underrated cocktail ingredient. They’re light, refreshing, and add a subtle earthiness to a drink – which is exactly what you get with a Cucumber Martini. You can shake up one for yourself with NEFT Vodka, cucumber simple syrup, and lemon juice. The Cucumber Martini is a great choice for anyone looking for a cocktail less sweet than a fruit martini, but also less spirit-forward than a classic vodka martini.
