Greek yogurt may not be your first idea when you think of cocktails, but it’s a lovely ingredient. The yogurt adds a creamy texture that feels luxurious without being heavy. The tang of yogurt pairs beautifully with lemon juice and London Dry gin, while Cointreau gives a hint of orange sweetness. Add in the homemade cucumber simple syrup, and the cocktail tastes like a lazy afternoon by the pool.
