Cucumber cocktails are perfect for summer! Though, I wonder if you have any tips for making them less watery?

I heard from a mixologist that chilling the cucumber in the fridge before juicing helps to reduce its water content, resulting in a less watery cocktail. Also, adding a splash of elderflower liqueur can enhance the flavor without diluting it too much.
