Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 1/2 cups fresh cucumber juice, (you will need 2 to 3 seedless cucumbers)
  • 1/2 cup freshly squeezed lime juice
  • 1/2 cup vodka
  • 1/4 cup simple syrup
  • 1 to 2 cups  cold seltzer water, (lime is great!)
  • crushed ice for serving
  • lime and cucumber slices for garnish

Instruction

  • To make the cucumber juice (if you don’t have a juicer), puree peeled seedless cucumbers (probably 2 of them) in a blender with a touch of water. Pour the puree through a fine mesh strainer into a large measuring cup.
  • In a large pitcher, combine the cucumber juice, lime juice, vodka and simply syrup. Stir well then refrigerate for at least 1 hour. Before serving, pour in the cold seltzer water, starting with 1 cup. Taste and if desired, add in more simple syrup and seltzer. Pour the mixture over crushed ice and garnish with lime wedges and cucumber slices!
  • Also, if you really want to UP the cucumber flavor, you can use cucumber vodka.
