Making the most of Bar Hemingway’s hiatus, Field has traveled the globe to take temporary stints behind some of the best bars the world over. In honor of his temporary take over of New York’s The Mark Restaurant by Jean-Georges, Field created this light, refreshing tequila drink: “Cucumber and tequila go together admirably well,” he says, “offering a fresh, fruity, but dry cocktail.”
