Method

Put the cucumber slices and mint leaves in large jug with a splash of the gin and muddle together with a cocktail muddler or the end of a rolling pin until the mint is thoroughly bruised and the cucumber has broken down. Stir in the remaining gin and the peach schnapps. Add the lime and apple juice, stir to combine, then strain into a 1.5ltr bottle.
Chill for up to 1 day before serving. Serve with few sprigs of mint, cucumber ribbons and peach slices to garnish.
