Ingredients

12 strawberries, hulled and sliced (1 1/4 cups), plus whole berries for serving

12 thin cucumber slices, halved (3/4 cup), plus whole rounds for serving

2 tablespoons superfine sugar

3 ounces fresh lemon juice

9 ounces gin, such as Citadelle, chilled

6 ounces St-Germain, chilled

Club soda, chilled; and Peychaud’s bitters, for serving

Preparation

Muddle sliced strawberries, halved cucumber slices, sugar, and lemon juice in the bottom of a pitcher until fruits break down and release most of their juices and sugar has dissolved. Stir in gin and St-Germain to combine. Fill 6 glasses halfway with ice. Divide fruit-and-gin mixture evenly among glasses. Top each with 1 to 2 ounces club soda; stir once. Top each with a few dashes of bitters, whole strawberries, and cucumber rounds; serve immediately.
