sunday service

1 1/2 oz Tequila (equal split of Arette & Cimarron)
1/2 oz Aperol
3/4 oz Lemon Juice
3/4 oz Ginger Syrup
3 slice Cucumber

Shake with ice strain into a glass (the app photo shows an old fashioned glass with ice), and garnish with salted cucumber slices. With a cut open cucumber at hand, I perused the Bartender's Choice app for uses. There, I honed in on the Sunday Service by Jose Cardenas at Diamond Reef in NYC circa 2019 that was described as a "slightly bitter & agave take on the Falls Cocktail [Bourbon, lemon, ginger, mint, Angostura]." Since the Aperol-cucumber combination to conjur watermelon notes was fresh in my head from the Ghost Hardware, I was curious to try it with ginger. In the glass, the Sunday Service began with cucumber and vegetal aromas. Next, a lemon sip with hints of orange arose to tequila, ginger, and watermelon flavors on the swallow.
