Cucumber Limeade (or Lemonade) - Very Refreshing!

I got this recipe from a friend and it is a very refreshing drink!  
Cucumber is great for the skin and is supposed to help with weight loss.  
Perfect refreshment to welcome Spring!

Ingredients:



  • 64oz. Water
  • 1 Large Cucumber (peeled and sliced)
  • 1 thinly sliced Lime (or Lemon)
  • 10-12 Mint Leaves (pinch leaves to bruise slightly)
  • 1 inch piece of raw Ginger (mash with back of spoon gently to loosen it up)

Combine all ingredients in a pitcher and let steep overnight in fridge.  


To make it go even a little further, you can refill the pitcher the next day and steep overnight one more time before loosing flavor quality.
