- 3 tbsp fresh lemon juice (from about 1–2 lemons)
- 1 tsp ground turmeric
- ¼ tsp ground cinnamon
- ⅛ tsp ground black pepper
- 1 tbsp honey
Chef's tipUse the same amount. Maple syrup is a little thinner and less sticky than honey. - ¼ cup cold water
- 1 cup sparkling water, chilled
- 1 cup ice cubes
For serving
- 2 thin lemon slices, for serving (optional)
- 2 thin cucumber rounds, for serving (optional)
Instructions
- 1
Add the chopped cucumber and cold water to a blender. Blend on high until completely smooth, about 30–45 seconds.
- 2
Set a fine-mesh strainer over a pitcher or large measuring cup. Pour the blended cucumber through the strainer, pressing the solids with the back of a spoon to extract as much liquid as possible. Discard the solids. You should have about 3/4 to 1 cup of cucumber juice.
