Cucumber, mint and lime juice

Cucumber, mint and lime juice rimmed with all natural brown sugar.
Refreshing!

Saudi Arabia is hot. Especially for a Bostonian and Englishman. We're used to snowball fighting in January, not sunbathing.

Not wanting the heat to defeat us we were determined, one hot winters day, to create a refreshing drink. And here's what Jessica came up with.

Cucumber juice!? To me it sounded a bit wacky but, to my surprise, it turned out to be the most summerlike drink that I've ever tried.

Here's how to make it:
STEP 1 

.....then juice the cucumbers 

wash.......

cut......

Collect all the juice. At this point it does smell and look rather funky. Have faith, the end product is worth it. 

STEP 2

 There is a lot of juice left in the pulp so mix the pulp with fresh mint leaves and put it all through the juicer again.



STEP 3

Sieve the juice into a large jug. Then use a spoon to push
more juice out of the pulp.

STEP 4

For every 1 liter of cucumber juice, squeeze 4 limes.

STEP 5 - decorate! 

Have a bowl of natural brown sugar and a saucer of cucumber juice ready. Dip the rip of your glass in the juice and then the brown sugar to decorate it.

STEP 6 - enjoy!
