Sunday Sipper: Cucumber Ginger Fizz

Today's drink is what I'm calling a Cucumber Ginger Fizz.  Awhile back I bought some of the Dry Cucumber Soda's for a drink but since I couldn't remember what I was going to make with them I made these.  They were crisp, light, slightly sweet and very refreshing.

CUCUMBER GINGER FIZZ
4 oz. Absolute Citron vodka
2 oz. simple syrup, flavored
-4 cucumber slices, diced
-5 slices fresh ginger
1 bottle Dry Cucumber Soda

In a shaker muddle diced cucumber and sliced ginger with simple syrup.  Let sit.  Add ice and shake vigorously.  To a tall glass filled with ice, add 2 oz. vodka, 1 oz. of the flavored simple syrup and top off with the cucumber soda (1/2 the bottle).  Makes 2 drinks.
