Some bars and restaurants pride themselves on creativity and may have a house mocktail. This recipe is inspired by a drink of the same name offered at the Boston restaurant Eastern Standard.

6 half-inch slices of peeled cucumber
Salt (just a dash)
6 oz. cranberry juice
1 oz. simple syrup
Juice squeezed from half a lime
Garnish: salt and sugar, cucumber slice

Mix a teaspoon each of salt and sugar in a saucer or shallow bowl. Moisten the rim of a wine or martini glass and press the rim into the salt-sugar mix. Add ice to the glass. In a separate glass or bowl, muddle the cucumber with a sprinkle of salt (i.e., smash it up a bit with a spoon). Add that to a shaker of ice, along with the cranberry juice, simple syrup, and lime juice. Shake well and pour into your prepared glass.
