Cucumber Lemonade
Make some delicious and refreshing cucumber lemonade with this simple recipe. All you need is a few ingredients and a blender.
Ingredients
- 1 cup Freshly squeezed lemon juice I used 2 large and 2 small lemons
- 2 Persian cucumbers peeled and de-seeded
- 1 cup Granulated sugar or less if you prefer more tart lemonade
- 6 cups Water
Instructions
- Prep your cucumbers by removing the seeds and skin. I used a spoon to scoop the seeds out of the middle.
- Add the cucumbers to a blender and combine with 1 cup of water. Blend until cucumbers are reduced to a pulp.
- Juice your lemons and strain any pulp/seeds out with a metal strainer. Add to your serving pitcher.
- Add sugar to lemon juice and stir to combine and "melt" sugar. The acidity of the lemon will help it dissolve without heating.
- Add the cucumber and water mixture and stir to combine.
- Add remaining 5 cups of water and stir.
- Add lemon slices to serving cups and serve!
