soda wateraround 2-3 oz per serving (depending on size of glass)
handfulmint leaves
hot honey and sea salt flakesfor coating the glasses
Instructions
Peel the cucumber and then cut into big chunks. Transfer to a blender to make a puree. Transfer the puree to a pan and add squeeze in juice of 1 small lime and sugar to taste. Stir until the sugar dissolves and everything mixes in together and then remove pan from heat.
Strain the mixture into another container using a strainer.
Take your serving glass and apply some spicy honey on the rim and then roll the rim in sea salt flakes so that it gets coated with the salt.
Add a lime wedge and a few mint leaves into the glass. Use a muddler to release the juices from the lime and mint leaves. Top with ice cubes.
Add 3 oz of the prepared cucumber juice, followed by 2 oz of coconut water. Top with soda sparkling water/soda water. The amount would depend on how big or small your serving glasses are. I added around 3 oz of soda water.Stir everything using a mixing spoon. Top with more mint leaves and serve immediately!
Notes
The amount of servings this recipe will make depends on the size of the serving glass you will use. I used pretty big glasses and so it only made 2 drinks.
If you are using smaller glasses, reduce the amount of cucumber juice and coconut water as well but keep the ratio similar. So for a smaller drink, you can do 1 & 1/2 oz of cucumber juice and 1 oz of coconut water and then top it with soda water.
