Directions
1. The day before you’d like to serve the cocktail, combine rum, lime juice, Green Chartreuse, and simple syrup in an airtight container. Store in the freezer for at least 8 hours.
2. Pour the pre-chilled base into a blender along with frozen cucumber slices and ice cubes. Blend until you get an homogenous texture. Scoop into serving glasses, garnish each slush with a cucumber spear and grated lime zest, and serve.
