I hosted a Splash Bash (post to follow next week) for my two darling girls and their friends yesterday. I mixed up a quick, flavored sparkling water for the adults. It was pretty good! I thought it would be great to share the recipe with you. It is a very fresh, very refreshing drink. A couple of the moms suggesting adding a bit of rum...You can do what you wish.
Ingredients-
4 liters of lemon lime seltzer water
3/4 cup sugar
2 limes
1 cucumber
Thinly slice one cucumber and one and a half of the limes. Save remaining half to be squeezed into the drink.
Pour seltzer water into your favorite drink dispenser. For this drink I used my favorite drink dispenser from Pottery Barn.
Add sugar. *Caution: Add sugar very slowly. Otherwise it will literally cause an eruption! I learned the hard way.
Stir until sugar is dissolved.
Squeeze remaining half of lime into seltzer water.
Add cucumbers and limes.
Serve cold over ice.
Enjoy and have a great weekend!
