About this recipe

This cucumber-lime smoothie is a light drink made with cucumber, banana, water, lime juice, and mint. Cucumber brings cool freshness, lime adds a tart contrast, and mint reinforces the refreshing flavor. Banana rounds out the mixture and keeps it from becoming too watery. This drink works well when you want a crisp green flavor and a light consistency without milk.

Ingredients

Servings
Base: 2
  • 1 cucumber

  • 1 banana

  • 200 ml water

  • juice of 1 lime

  • a few mint leaves

Steps

  1. Rinse the cucumber and mint. Cut the cucumber into smaller pieces, then peel and cut up the banana. Squeeze the lime and remove any seeds from the juice; reserve the mint leaves separately.

  2. Put the cucumber and banana in a blender, then pour in the measured water and lime juice. Use chilled water if you want the drink to be cold immediately.

  3. Blend until the cucumber and banana are evenly broken down. Only then add the mint leaves and blend very briefly, just to distribute them through the drink.

  4. Check for larger cucumber pieces and stir the smoothie before pouring. Divide between two glasses and serve immediately; the lime should remain a distinct part of the flavor.
