STREPE CHEPE

Cowie has fueled lots of parties with the Strepe Chepe. This very light and refreshing cocktail is not only easy to make with only four ingredients, but versatile, too. Cowie says a friend/client named the cocktail and it's been fuel for fabulousness ever since.

RECIPE:
8 ounces high-quality vodka
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
3 tablespoons superfine sugar, plus more to taste
1/2 cup fresh mint leaves, tightly packed

Combine all ingredients in a blender full of ice cubes. Blend until the contents achieve a uniform frozen consistency. Add more sugar periodically as needed or until the mixture is just sweet to taste. Serve in champagne flutes or shot glasses
