Irma La Douce
Muddle cucumber, shake, coupe glass, strain, Garnish with thin slice of cucumber
Created for a Green Chartreuse night. "A green French liqueur + a movie in which Shirley MacLaine plays a Parisian prostitute dressed in bright green stockings = a drink called the Irma La Douce."
- Excellent! Anytime you're thinking of Pimm's Cup for a nice summery drink, make this instead.

The original recipe calls for "fresh cucumber puree (peel and blend cucumber, then pass through a sieve)" but suggests muddling a few slices would be fine for the lazy. I found it gummed up the top of my cobbler shaker so I'd recommend the former.
