I looked at the sign, then at the pickling cuke and thought it looked like a cucumber. Not one to have food remorse, I tossed one in my basket. In my kitchen I cut a few slices and popped a slice into my mouth. Damn, it was a cucumber (my produce guy gets a gold star for marketing). Not one to waste food, I thought of that idiom “When life gives you cucumbers makes cocktails!” Okay, maybe that’s not a true idiom, but Cheers!
- 1.5 oz. cucumber vodka
- 4-6 slices of pickling cuke
- 1/4 lime, sliced
- 1 bottle of Mr. Q Cumber
- 6 mint leaves
Methodology: Add mint, lime, vodka, and cukes to shaker and muddle. Pour mixture over glass filled with ice and cucumber slices. Top with Mr. Q. Cumber. Stir, let set for a few minutes for the flavors to enhance, and enjoy.
I’ve never heard of Mr Q Cumber….am intrigued.

I am sure if I seen those names at my farmers market, I would still be saying “What the hell is this” 🤣
