Pro tips

  • Juice the cucumber with the peel on (remove if not organic). The peel contains beta-carotene, an important antioxidant that the body converts to Vitamin A.

  • Adding a splash of carbonated water will turn your limeade into a fizzy drink – like sparkling limeade!

  • Like mojitos? Try adding rum. Prefer margaritas? Add tequila and blend with ice cubes. Either way, you get an unforgettable cold-pressed cocktail!

  • Want a fancy looking garnish? Add some lime zest to the top or add lime slices to the rim!

  • Replace the fresh lime juice in this recipe with lemon juice if you’d prefer apple lemonade!
