drinks is this refreshing cucumber lime drink from Harshita&#8217;s Kitchen.&nbsp;It&#8217;s so much better than canned juice you buy in stores!&nbsp;I highly recommend this drink because it&#8217;s really good.&nbsp;I made it for the first time at a party and it was an immediate success.&nbsp;Everyone liked it, even the children.&nbsp;So we decided to prepare it every weekend of this summer season.&nbsp;Just mix all the ingredients in a blender and it&#8217;s ready to serve.&nbsp;It&#8217;s sweet, minty and citrusy.&nbsp;Drunk on a hot sunny day, it is the best way to quench your thirst.&nbsp;Read on or watch the video below for full instructions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"block-416bbc32-8d73-48ca-9c2b-0a97173a6651\">Ingredients<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\" id=\"block-8c1a452c-18b5-48e7-be14-a362badf4353\">\n<li>a mini cucumber<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>a lime (more for garnish \u2013 cut into thin slices)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>0.35 oz fresh mint leaves (about 10-12 leaves)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>three tablespoons of sugar<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>2\/3 cup water<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>many ice cubes<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"block-ec035b9a-c6cd-4c9e-a403-204df68e4e5d\">Instructions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"block-f656a15b-618f-4f54-99da-cf1d2fee695c\">Phase 1:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"block-f21555a9-20e6-43c3-8587-835388254b16\">Start by cutting the cucumber into pieces, squeezing a lime and washing the mint leaves.&nbsp;Be sure to remove the seeds from the lime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"block-414871f0-d1c8-4dc5-8248-ee0dc52ba49e\">Level 2:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"block-1b222f66-2a89-4b37-b67c-cea511ab6cec\">Add the cucumber pieces to the blender, then the juice of 1 lime, 10-12 fresh mint leaves and three tablespoons of sugar.&nbsp;You can adjust the amount of sugar according to the sweetness you desire.&nbsp;If you prefer, you can also use sweeteners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"block-d98ff6ae-c988-4f58-9e4c-3c019852e8fb\">Phase 3:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"block-e167b5dd-d62c-475d-8aaa-77140a94fbcc\">Pour 2\/3 cup water into blender and blend until smooth.&nbsp;Cucumbers have a high water content, so you don&#8217;t need to add a lot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"block-0b96fad7-ebe8-4360-b1b1-d04acbad23a6\">Step 4:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"block-dcff4f33-f45e-48ff-a118-e60735fa3422\">Add several ice cubes to a glass, then pour in the cucumber drink.&nbsp;Garnish with a lime wedge and a few mint leaves.&nbsp;Serve and enjoy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"block-dbe4c641-74fc-4e5c-93ae-d3cd9d90b423\"><em>Did you like this simple and delicious
