Instructions
In a small saucepan, combine the sugar with a 1/4 cup of water and coarsely chopped mint leaves. Bring to a boil, then remove from heat and cover for 15 minutes. Strain the mint syrup into a large bowl and cool to room temperature. Whisk in gin, lime juice, lime zest, and cucumber puree. In a microwave-safe bowl, sprinkle the gelatin over the remaining 1 tablespoon of water and let stand about 5 minutes or until softened. Microwave the mixture on high until the gelatin dissolves, roughly 8 seconds. Peel, seed, and puree a 12-ounce cucumber. Whisk the gelatin into the gin and cucumber mixture. Fill popsicle molds, leaving 1/4-inch at the top. If inserting wooden sticks into the popsicles, let the mixture freeze for about 45 minutes to an hour beforehand. Freeze for another hour or until fully frozen. This recipe is courtesy of Tim Love.More cocktails with sugar
