The “Syrup”
This is a base that you will use however much you like into a glass of seltzer/sparkling water.
The syrup lasts 3-5 days in the fridge.
The blogger who brought me this recipe said:
“It is really a to your taste kind of thing but when I mix it at the market I mix 4 parts carbonated water to 1 part syrup. I personally really like cucumbers so I mix it almost half and half but when I do this at the market for others I mix it much lighter as most people are not as crazy about cucumbers as I am.”
Cucumbers are a natural diuretic so if you find you are retaining water this is an awesome way to get a little relief.
- Mix the cucumber syrup, juice of 1/2 lemon and liquid stevia.
- Pour your carbonated water (mineral water or regular carbonated water) into a glass and then add the syrup to your liking. Careful it will foam up but adding the syrup to the carbonated water in that order makes it mix without having to stir.
