A refreshing reward for crossing a personal threshold.

💫 Instructions:
1️⃣ Create the base.
In a shaker or glass, mix cucumber juice, lime, sweetener, and mint. Stir or muddle gently—don’t overpower.
2️⃣ Add the sparkle.
Fill two glasses with ice. Divide the base, then top with sparkling water. Stir lightly.
3️⃣ Garnish the moment.
Add a cucumber ribbon, a mint sprig, or a lime wheel.
Sit down. Breathe. Take the moment in.

🧊 Optional Spirit Infusion
Not needed. Not better. Just another expression.
The Milestone Mint is complete on its own—cool, clear, and conscious.
But if you’re marking a turning point and choose to incorporate alcohol, make it intentional.
These spirits pair well without overpowering the meaning:
- 🥒 Cucumber vodka — clean and light
- 🌿 Mint gin — herbal undertone
- 🍋 Citrus-forward tequila blanco — sharp edge, not too sweet
🍸 🍸 🍸 🍸
📏 Suggested Pour (for 2 servings):
Add 1–1½ oz total (½–¾ oz per glass) after mixing the base, before topping with sparkle.
💡 Sea salt still belongs.
It doesn’t matter what’s in your glass—it’s how you show up to drink it.
💡 Truth Drop:
🥒 Cucumber hydrates at the cellular level—cool, clean, and deeply replenishing.
🌿 Mint activates mental clarity and refreshes emotional circuits.
🍋 Lime is a citrus signal booster—it tells your system, “wake up, you’ve arrived.”
This isn’t a party drink.
It’s a personal ceremony in liquid form.
💬 Closing Vibe:
No stage. No spotlight.
Just you… recognizing how far you’ve come.
Drink this when you know you’re not the same person you were.
And that’s worth celebrating.
