What you need
- Cucumber
- Lemons
- Your favorite pitcher
- Water
Make it:
This will take all of 2 minutes. Peel off the skin of the cucumber. Cut slices that are about 1/4 inch thick. Don't worry, it doesn't have to be perfect! Next, do the same with the lemon, but you can keep the skin on.
Depending how much citrus flavor you like, and how much cucumber flavor you like, add accordingly. I would suggest a third of a cucumber and one whole lemon.
Add all the ingredients into the pitcher and add the water. Let this refriderate for about an hour and stir gently once or twice.
To get extra fancy, add a few mint leaves!
This is super refreshing and perfect for all ages.
I read on the news yesterday that 15 states are still in a heat wave with no end in sight...cool yourself down with this treat!
