Tanqueray 10 and a Cucumber Slice
 

Try it. It does some crazy stuff with the botanicals. It doesn't work with any other gin I've tried.

and what made you try it?:confused:

I have some Ten here, but I can only really eat Cucumber in sushi.... you've got me curious though now....:hm

Re: Tanqueray 10 and a Cucumber Slice
 

does the cucumber really affect it that much?

Re: Tanqueray 10 and a Cucumber Slice
 

My buddy suggested it. Now I'm hooked!

Who said eat it? ;)

Re: Tanqueray 10 and a Cucumber Slice
 

Sounds awesome for the summer! Just 10 and cucumber? Over ice? Any mixer?

Re: Tanqueray 10 and a Cucumber Slice
 

It really makes it a totally different drink for me. Fantastic!

Its amazing the extent of the internet. I'm having dinner and saw this, just ordered it - I don't drink this much but it is a lot fresher, nice change for sure.

Thanks for the advice!

Now what do I order for desert?

Re: Tanqueray 10 and a Cucumber Slice
 

Go with the cheescake!

Re: Tanqueray 10 and a Cucumber Slice
 

The mention of cucumber in Gin, makes me think of Hendrick's. Yumm

Re: Tanqueray 10 and a Cucumber Slice
 

They do have a New York Cheesecake with Strawberry - good choice Major.

Will split it with the girlfriend and top it off with a nice cigar.

Re: Tanqueray 10 and a Cucumber Slice
 

Glad I could help. I might have one of those LGCs you sent me tomorrow since you got me thinking of them!

Crap, I just spent my money on a regular bottle of Tanqueray... I don't suppose this recipe would work on that, would it? I mean, it does taste different with more botanical notes than most other gins....

I guess I could just try it and find out.

Re: Tanqueray 10 and a Cucumber Slice
 

try it and let me know bro.

Re: Tanqueray 10 and a Cucumber Slice
 

Next time grab a bottle of Hendricks Gin if you like cucumbers.

Re: Tanqueray 10 and a Cucumber Slice
 

i was there i saw him do it:ss

did u try it with any other Gins.

Re: Tanqueray 10 and a Cucumber Slice
 

You can drink it straight over ice or with some tonic.

Re: Tanqueray 10 and a Cucumber Slice
 

I absolutely hate regular Tanqueray. I don't know why but it just tastes like crap to me.

Re: Tanqueray 10 and a Cucumber Slice
 

The cucumber is suggested on the tag of a bottle of Hendricks. In a Hendricks Gin and tonic I usually use a couple of slices of cucumber and slightly muddle it. I haven't tried it with Tanq10, but I imagine it would be good -- probably with most any gin, actually.
The Hendrick's flavorings though seem to suggest cucumber all by itself...

Re: Tanqueray 10 and a Cucumber Slice
 

Because it tastes like propane...but I love 10.

Re: Tanqueray 10 and a Cucumber Slice
 

It doesn't work with Bombay for me. Make's it taste metallic.

MCS

Re: Tanqueray 10 and a Cucumber Slice
 

:tu Was just thinking the same thing.

Re: Tanqueray 10 and a Cucumber Slice
 

Damn just seen this after pouring the last little bit of bombay and adding a couple olives. Guess I am glad I only had bombay, dont want the metalic taste.

Re: Tanqueray 10 and a Cucumber Slice
 

Have you tried Hendricks? It's made with cucumber in the infusion.

Re: Tanqueray 10 and a Cucumber Slice
 

I'm going to based on yours and other posts in this thread.

Re: Tanqueray 10 and a Cucumber Slice
 

Works with Millers too

Re: Tanqueray 10 and a Cucumber Slice
 

Ok, it is now official - this is falls right behind Chivas on the rocks for me.

Tried it again last night - very clean and makes for an interesting conversation in Spanish when I try to explain "Yes, that is really what Im ordering. Yes, I know what pepino is!"

Much funnier en espanol...

If you would please refrain from knocking Propane as a thirst quencher.

Thank you
