You can add whatever ingredients your heart desires, but the key thing to remember about this drink is that the more interesting the combination, the better.
Add 4 cucumber slices to the boiling water and cook for 2 minutes.
Remove cucumbers from the pan and immediately plunge them into an ice bath until they reach room temperature.
In a blender, combine cucumbers, ¼ cup lemon juice, ⅓ cup sugar syrup, ½ cup vodka, 12 ounces club soda, and Simple Syrup made by combining equal parts sugar and water. Blend until smooth.
Pour contents of blender through a fine mesh strainer set over medium bowl.
