Crush the cucumber: In a shaker, crush the two cucumber slices with a mortar and pestle to extract the juice and flavors.
Add the liquid ingredients: Add the vodka, lime juice, and simple syrup to the shaker.
Add mint and ice: Add a good handful of fresh mint and fill the shaker with ice.
Shaker: Close the shaker and shake vigorously for 10 to 15 seconds.
