CUCUMBER-MINT MARGARITA
This recipe is sponsored by Cointreau. We take advantage of the end-of-summer abundance of cucumbers and fresh mint and update The Original Margarita, one of the most popular classic cocktails in the country. The recipe has been around for over 70 years and is still made with just three simple ingredients: Cointreau, tequila and lime. In this version, we start by muddling the cucumber and mint until both are fragrant and the mint has released its natural oils. Cointreau elevates this cocktail with its highly aromatic yet balanced flavor profile. Once shaken with plenty of ice and served in a glass with a salt rim, it is the most refreshing cocktail you will have this season.

Steps:
- Rub the rim of a rocks glass with 1 lime wedge, then dip the rim in coarse salt.
- Muddle the mint and cucumber in a cocktail shaker with a muddler or the handle of a wooden spoon until the cucumber is broken up and the mint is bruised, 5 to 6 times. Add the Cointreau, tequila and lime juice. Fill the shaker three-quarters of the way with ice and shake well. Pour into the prepared glass and garnish with the remaining lime wedge.
CUCUMBER-MINT WATER
Little things can make a dinner party a success, like serving a refreshing flavored water. This cucumber-mint sipper is a breeze to make in the blender. Chill and then strain before serving (letting the liquid sit with the cucumber-mint mash for as long as possible helps build flavor). It's also a perfect base for a cocktail; let your guests add gin or vodka to taste.

Steps:
- Blend the cucumbers, sugar, lemon juice, mint, salt and 4 cups cold water in a blender until as smooth as possible (a fair amount of solids will remain). (If all the ingredients do not fit in your blender, use half the water to puree, transfer the puree to a larger container, then stir in the remaining water.) Refrigerate to chill, at least 1 hour.
- Before serving, strain the cucumber-mint water through a fine strainer. Use the bottom of a ladle or wooden spoon to help push the liquid through the mesh. Discard the solids. Serve over ice. Add gin or vodka to taste if using.
