Sadly, the Heat Wave is still with us, with no signs of subsiding any time soon. Even when the temperature drops, the air is still so humid that it is never "nice" out. Fortunately, the heat gives reason to make more fancy drinks. This time we're using cucumber and lime.
It's simple: slice the cucumber, drop it in a glass (or jar as it may be) fill the glass with ice, and squeeze in half a lime. Fill with cold water and--ta da! Cucumber somehow makes water taste extra refreshing and cold. I don't know how it happens, but it is a very good thing. Sometimes I'll let the cucumber water sit for a few minutes (or as long as you want) to let the cucumber infuse a bit more, but you can taste it right away--it just depends on your preferences.
