- ½ cucumber peeled, roughly diced
- 2 tablespoon elderflower cordial
- 4 mint leaves
- sparkling water
- ice
Peel the cucumber, reserving a little of the peel to use as a garnish if you wish. Chop the cucumber into large pieces.
Add the cucumber pieces, mint leaves and elderflower cordial to a blender. Blend to a puree.
Strain the mixture using a cocktail strainer into your glasses, or alternatively place a fine mesh sieve over a bowl and strain the mixture that way. Discard the pulp in the sieve and pour the cucumber liquid evenly into your glasses.
Top with ice, then pour on sparkling water. Garnish with fresh mint leaves to preference, and serve immediately.
- Don't skip peeling the cucumber! The peel will not work in the drink as it is too tough and won't have that fresh taste.
- Adjust the amount of mint to taste.
- Use an unflavoured sparkling water or club soda rather than a flavoured or heavily mineralised water.
