Ingredients
1 large English cucumber, peeled and roughly chopped
¼ cup Fresh lemon or lime juice
¼ cup Fresh mint leaves, finely chopped or kept in small pieces
¼ cup Water (just enough to help the blender spin)
Optional: A few drops of liquid stevia, monk fruit, or sugar-free lemon/lime water enhancer if you want them extra sweet.
Instructions
Blend the Base: In a blender, combine the chopped cucumber, lemon juice, and water. Blend on high until completely liquified and smooth.
Stir in the Mint: Pour the cucumber liquid into a measuring cup. Stir in the finely chopped fresh mint leaves (this ensures you get those beautiful, vibrant green flecks evenly distributed throughout the cubes, exactly like the photo).
Fill the Trays: Pour the mixture evenly into a large silicone square ice cube tray.
Freeze: Place the tray flat in the freezer for at least 4 hours, or overnight, until completely solid.
Store: Pop the frozen cubes out of the silicone tray and store them in an airtight container or Ziploc bag in the freezer so they are ready to go whenever you need them.
🥤 How to Use Them: The Ultimate Crisp Cooler
When you are ready for a drink, simply grab 3 to 4 of these cubes, drop them into your cup or shaker, and pour your Clear Lemon Protein Drink right over the top.
As the cubes melt, they will slowly release fresh cucumber, zesty lemon, and crisp mint into your protein drink, keeping it ice-cold and bursting with fresh flavor from the first sip to the last!
