Title: Cucmber mint popsicles
Post by: Rain on May 22, 2012, 11:23:51 AM

Here is a refreshing recipe that you could enjoy on a hot summer day. But remember to watch your fluid consumption.

1 large cucumber - peeled and seeded if it has seeds
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup water
1 tbsp fresh mint
Juice of 1/2 a lime


Create a simple syrup -  add sugar and water in a sauce pan and heat on low until sugar is melted.  Place aside and allow to cool.

Add cucumber, mint, simple syrup and lime juice to a food processor, blender or stick blender, and puree. 
Pour in Popsicle models and freeze.  Enjoy on a hot summer day.
