03 — Method
- Wash the cucumber under cold water and dry it with a clean towel.
- Slice the cucumber into thin 3 mm (⅛ in) rounds, skin on for color.
- Slice the lime into thin 2 mm (1/16 in) rounds and remove any seeds, which can taste bitter.
- Wash and dry the mint leaves, then bruise them lightly between your palms to release their oils.
- Layer the cucumber, lime and mint in the pitcher.
- Pour the cold water over the top, add the ice and refrigerate 1 hour before serving.
- Serve well chilled in tall glasses with a few cucumber slices and mint leaves.
