1 oz fresh lime juice
0.75 oz green chartreuse
0.5 oz honey syrup
1 oz cucumber juice
1 dash orange bitters
Large ice cube
Orange peel (for garnish)

Pro Tips:
For an extra herbal kick, muddle fresh basil or mint before shaking.
If you prefer a lighter version, top it with soda water for a refreshing highball variation.
The large ice cube helps slow dilution, keeping the flavors intense from start to finish.
