The English Garden Cocktail

1. 1

   Put the cucumber, lemon juice, thyme and cordial in your shaker and muddle with a muddler or the clean end of a rolling pin. Try to get the juice out of the cucumber. Alternatively you can grate the cucumber on the large holes of a box grater and use your hands to squeeze the juice into your shaker.

2. 2

   Add the gin, simple syrup and egg white and half fill the shaker with fresh ice.

3. 3

   Shake vigorously until a frost forms on the shaker then strain into two chilled martini glasses (or use small elegant flutes).

4. 4

   Decorate with strips of cucumber and a sprig of thyme.
