Cucumber Lemonade

Summer doesn't truly start in Seattle until July but with warm  weather and cool breeze at nights, it has been a wonderful week so far in Seattle.With warn weather comes barbeques, swimming and lemonades to enjoy the sunny weather out here.

Cucumbers are a great refreshing summer treat and I have used them in salads or had them with just salt & pepper. Today`s Cucumber Lemonade recipe is an attempt at trying cucumber and lime together~ a cold frothy concoction for a warm evening.

1. 4 tablespoons sugar
2. 4 tablespoons fresh lime juice
3. 1/2 cup seedless cucumber chopped 
4. 2 cups water

In a blender, combine cucumber,lime juice, water and sugar. Puree until frothy and serve chilled with few ice cubes. Garnish with lime wedges.
