Cucumber Lime Mint Summer Drink
Ingredients
- 1 cucumber
- 1/3 cup mint leaves
- 1/4 cup lime juice
- 2 small basil leaves
- 1/2 teaspoon ginger juice
- Ice cubes
- 500 ml water
Preparation
Add all the ingredients to a high-speed blender and blend until smooth. If using a small blender, do it in batches.
Pour the drink directly into glasses, or strain through a fine mesh sieve to remove pulp by pressing with a spoon or spatula.
Fill a pitcher, glasses, or bottle with ice cubes and add the juice.
Serve garnished with fresh mint leaves or lime rind.
For a cocktail version, add your favorite liquor and serve.
