4 INSTRUCTIONS Yeah, yeah, instructions are on the box, we know. But doesn t everyone just throw the box away? Besides, guys don t read instructions anyway It s against their guyhood. So, just in case Use SpiraLife like a giant pencil sharpener isn t clear enough: 1. As your SpiralLife slicer is equipped with two blade sizes, choose which end of your slicer to use depending on your desired veggie thickness. 2. Remove the cap from your SpiralLife spiral slicer. 3. Place your vegetable in the center of the slicer s cone and twist clockwise with consistent pressure to create long vegetable strands. 4. Use your SpiralLife cap when the vegetable becomes too short to turn by hand. Simply stab Mr. Veggie with the provided spikes and then twist the cap-veggie combo until you can t twist anymore. You ll have a little nub left over. Feel free to chop this up and toss it into your pasta or just toss it in the bin as Gordon Ramsay would say. 5. When done, simply clean with dish soap, running water and a little brush or place the entire SpiraLife into the top rack of your dishwasher.

14 Cucumber Mint Gimlet by Ari Cohen Cucumber Simple Syrup: 2-inch piece of cucumber ¾ cup water ½ cup sugar Cocktail: 2 ounces gin 1 ounce Cucumber Simple Syrup ¼ ounce lime juice ½ ounce club soda 4 mint leaves Cucumber spirals for garnish Cucumber Simple Syrup: 1. Use your SpiraLife to spiral a 2-inch piece of cucumber. Spiral extra to reserve for garnish. 2. Place cucumber, water and sugar in a small pot. 3. Bring to a boil until sugar dissolves. 4. Let cool. Set aside. Cocktail: 1. Place gin, syrup, lime juice and mint in a cocktail shaker. Muddle the mint. 2. Add ice and shake or stir. Shaking will more quickly produce a colder cocktail and the ice will further muddle the mint, providing more mint flavor. 3. Add club soda. Serve over ice. Makes one cocktail. NOTE: Remaining syrup can be reserved for other cocktail and mocktail uses. Using large pieces of ice allows the ice to melt more slowly into your drink, preventing it from becoming watered down before you are done drinking.
