Pepino Martini

We recently stayed in downtown Cleveland at the Westin, and attached ot the hotel was the Masa & Agave Cantina.  I was in the mood for something different and decided to try the Pepino Martini you see below.  It's a combination of cucumber vodka, Ancho Reyes Verde (a chile liqueur), simple syrup, and a few other ingredients you'll find in the second image, which the bartender was sweet enough to let me take a picture.  It was a perfect combination of cucumber, sweetness, and heat.  I'll try to recreate it at home, but if I come close, that will be good enough.

If you're not familiar with Ancho Reyes Verde, you can read about it at the link below.
