And going to a restaurant, let me tell you, it would test the patience of Job. She can't order straight off the menu, everything has to be adjusted.

I think it would be a pain, and not worth it. I think if she puts all her other ingredients in a shaker with some slices of cucumber and muddles and shakes it, she'll have plenty of cucumber flavor."<BR/><BR/>xo!Mollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01493708300940204826noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6798880948204583206.post-64645674607889843212008-04-11T14:18:00.000-07:002008-04-11T14:18:00.000-07:00Oh BABY.

We have a cheap-o thrifted juicer that we never, ever use, but if you try this drink again with cucumber juice, and if it's good, I swear, I will get out our juicer in a split second and give it a go.

I find tonic to be almost bitter, and "watering" the soda down with it might pull down the sugar a bit?<BR/><BR/>Just a thought.<BR/>Either way, I'm probably going to make eight of these as soon as I get home.Jenna Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13681546520879492632noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6798880948204583206.post-68038323993313048712008-04-11T11:58:00.000-07:002008-04-11T11:58:00.000-07:00Pity that the soda is so sweet, because lemon + mi...Pity that the soda is so sweet, because lemon + mint + cucumber sounds fantastic.
