你知道這句「提籃假燒金」俚語的由來嗎？
昔日台灣傳統婦女會以提著籃子去廟裡燒香為藉口，其實是要來Fourplay約會啦！（大誤）
This gin base basket cocktail is a mixed of chamomile, cucumber, and apricot, a refreshing drink indeed!

因為這是 pun。
Cool 在這裡是雙關語，字面上是溫度低的意思，
小黃瓜常常冰冰的食用（敷臉好像也是冰冰的？）。

Answer to BookBrowse Wordplay
Question:
C As A C
Answer :
Cool As A Cucumber
Meaning :
To be serene and unflappable
Source
Cucumbers are a popular summer ingredient and have the image of being
cool/fresh to eat and therefore an antidote to the heat. Thus the simile
has come to symbolize coldness or aloofness. An early reference comes
from Cupid's Revenge by Fletcher and Beaumont (1615) who wrote "young
maids were as cold as Cowcumbers".

還有個原因是cool和cucumber壓頭韻，稱為alliteration或initial rhyme。類似例子有：
(來自「實用英文片語和慣用語」；Richard A. Spears原著，黃方怡 譯)
as blind as a bat
as busy as a bee
as dead as a dodo/doornail
as fit as a fiddle
as good as gold
as pretty as a picture
as proud as a peacock
as mad as a March hare
as snug as a bug in a rug→這是押尾韻rhyme
