Cucumber and lime are the main flavors of this delectable pale green, alcohol-free drink.
Many of us who eat LCHF limit our alcohol consumption for weight management and for
general health reasons. This drink also gives the green light to those of us at the party
holding the car keys.
A few fresh raspberries atop a straw enhance the taste and make the drink doubly
attractive. I make this with tonic water, but if you want to avoid all added sugar, substitute
with club soda or diet tonic water.
Pale Green Summer Drink
• 1 large hothouse cucumber
• 2 limes
• 2 bottles tonic or club soda, 11⅛ fl. oz. (330 ml) each, sugar-free
• raspberries for garnish
Peel and slice the cucumber, and juice the limes. Mix in a blender until smooth.
Mix the cucumber and lime blend with tonic or club soda in a pitcher. Serve the drink with
ice cubes and raspberries on a straw.
