Ingredients
- 2 large unwaxed cucumbers
- juice of 1/2 lemon or lime, optional
- pinch salt, optional
Instructions
- Wash the cucumbers thoroughly. Do not peel, leaving the skin on will retain more nutrients.
blender/food processor method
- Cut the cucumbers into chunks that will fit easily into your blender or juicer. Blend until smooth. Strain through a fine mesh sieve if desired.
juicer method
- Cut the cucumbers into chunks that will fit easily into your blender or juicer. Simply feed the cucumber chunks into the juicer.
grater method
- Grate the whole cucumbers and then wrap in cheesecloth or a thin kitchen cloth to squeeze out the juice. Use hard pressure to get all of the juice out. Discard the solids.
- Stir in the lemon or lime juice for a refreshing, tangy flavor. You can add a dash of salt if you like.
- Pour the cucumber juice into a glass and enjoy immediately or refrigerate for up to a day.
Notes
- To make cucumber water (or cucumber aqua fresca) mix your cucumber juice with cold water in a 1:2 ratio of juice to water.
