Ingredients
  

  • 2 medium cucumbers peeled and chopped
  • 1 cup fresh mint leaves packed
  • 1/4 cup lime juice about 2-3 limes
  • 1/4 cup honey or agave syrup
  • 4 cups cold water

  • Mint sprigs and cucumber slices for garnish

Method
 

  1. In a blender, combine the chopped cucumbers, mint leaves, lime juice, and honey. Blend until smooth.
  2. Strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve into a large pitcher to remove the pulp. Use a spatula to press down and extract as much liquid as possible.
  3. Add the cold water to the pitcher and stir well to combine.
  4. Chill the mixture in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
  5. Serve over ice cubes in glasses, garnished with mint sprigs and cucumber slices.
