2 cups cold water
¼ cup fresh lime juice (from about 2 limes)
3 tbsp maple syrup
½ cup fresh mint leaves, loosely packed

Chef's tip
Season to taste - salt substitutes can taste bitter in larger amounts, so start with less.

For serving

3 cups ice cubes, for serving
4 thin lime slices (optional)
4 small fresh mint sprigs (optional)

Instructions

1
Add the chopped cucumber, cold water, lime juice, maple syrup, mint leaves, and salt to a blender. Blend on high until completely smooth, about 45–60 seconds.
2
Set a fine-mesh strainer over a large pitcher. Pour the blended mixture through the strainer, pressing gently on the solids with the back of a spoon to extract as much liquid as possible. Discard the solids.
