1 lb of cucumbers , ends trimmed, but peel still on, coarsely chopped
1/2 cup lime juice from fresh limes
1 1/4 cup packed , woody stems removed
1/2 cup sugar
Approximately 1 1/4 cup of water
Directions
Put ingredients in blender, add enough water to fill 3/4 of blender. Hold the lid on the blender and purée until smooth.
Place a fine mesh sieve over a bowl and pour the purée through it, pressing against the sieve with a rubber spatula or the back of a spoon to extract as much liquid out as possible.
Fill a large pitcher halfway with ice cubes. Add the juice. Serve with sprigs of mint and slices of lime.
