Ingredients
- 2 lime
- 1/4 cucumber cubed, medium
- 1 lemongrass outer leaves removed and soft centre finely diced, stalk
- 4 tbsp sugar
- 4 tbsp cachaça or up to 6 if you prefer a stronger drink
- 20 ice cubes or crushed, to serve
Instructions
- <b>Vitamix method</b>
- Peel and quarter the limes and add them together with the lemongrass, sugar and cucumber into the Vitamix.
- Pulse on low speed for a few seconds.
- Add the ice and alcohol and then pulse until the ice is crushed and the drink has the consistency of a slushie. You can use the 'frozen' setting for this or increase the dial speed gradually.
- Serve in rocks glasses with straws.

- <b>By hand</b>
- Cut each lime into quarters then eights. Put the limes, lemongrass, cucumber and sugar in a cocktail shaker and muddle with the end of a rolling pin trying to extract as much juice as you can.
- Divide the juice and pulp between two rocks glasses and top with the Cachaça (either 2 or 3 tbsp per glass).
- Fill the glasses with plenty of crushed ice and serve with straws.
