Kitchen Overlord: QUI-GON’s Gin Fizz

Impress the Jedi lurking about Mos Eisley with a drink that will make them think you juiced Yoda.

Who is Qui-Gon Jinn?
A venerable if maverick Jedi Master, Qui-Gon Jinn was a student of the living Force. Unlike other Jedi Masters, who often lose themselves in the meditation of the unifying Force, Qui-Gon Jinn lived for the moment, espousing a philosophy of “feel, don’t think — use your instincts.” Were it not for Qui-Gon’s unruly views, he would have undoubtedly been on the Jedi Council.


Ingredients

  • 1 shot gin
  • 2 inches fresh cucumber
  • 1 fresh mint leaf
  • ½ lime
  • 1 tsp simple syrup
  • ½ cup ice
  • 2 drops green food coloring
  • ginger ale

Use your lightsaber to slice off a two inch hunk of fresh cucumber. Cut it into quarters and drop it into a cocktail shaker.

Add the fresh mint leaf and ¼ of a lime.

Muddle the greens together until they look like a Dagoba swamp.

Add the gin, simple syrup, food coloring, and ice.

Shake like your ship is about to break apart in a mine field.

Strain the contents into a martini glass.

Top with ginger ale and garnish with the remaining quarter lime wedge.
