About this recipe
This cucumber, mint, and apple smoothie is a light, fresh drink made with water and lime juice. Cucumber lends a cool, delicate flavor, apple adds natural sweetness, and mint reinforces the refreshing character. Lime juice provides tart contrast and keeps the drink from tasting flat. Blend only briefly and serve immediately, while the mint is most noticeable and the cucumber still tastes fresh.
Ingredients
Servings: 2
1 cucumber
1 apple
a few mint leaves
220 ml water
juice of 1/2 lime
Steps
Rinse the cucumber, apple, and mint. Remove the core from the apple, then cut the cucumber and apple into smaller pieces.
Add the ingredients to a blender jar in this order: 1 cucumber, 1 apple, a few mint leaves, 220 ml water, and the juice of 1/2 lime.
Blend the cucumber with the apple, mint, water, and lime juice only until combined. Do not blend for too long so the mint does not develop a slightly bitter aftertaste.
Serve the smoothie well chilled and immediately after making it. If the lime flavor is too strong, add a little water.
