The cerveza cooler

Serves 1

10ml fresh lime juice
10ml elderflower cordial
Lemonade, to taste
Mexican lager, to taste – we use Corona, though you could go heavier with Modelo

Measure the mezcal, lime juice and cordial into a tall glass (or jug), then add ice and stir. Top with the lemonade and lager to taste, garnish with the lime wheel and cucumber slice and serve.
