Cucumber lemonade

Plain old lemonade never goes out of fashion, but if you add a dash of cucumber, it takes it to a whole different level. 

1 large cucumber (or 2 small)
1/2 cup freshly squeezed lime juice
1/3 cup sugar
1 tsp salt
6 glasses water

Method:
Wash and deseed the cucumber (leave the seeds if there aren't too many). Chop into cubes. 
Blend cucumber, sugar and 2 cups water till smooth. Strain (I used the strained part as a salad dressing). 
Mix in salt and lime juice. Chill
Before serving, dilute 1/3 glass concentrate with water or soda.
