Let’s make it
Put cucumber and lemon slices into a clean jug. Gently press the mint leaves between clean hands to release their aroma and add them.
Pour in cold drinking water and stir.
Divide ice among four glasses and pour the cooler over it. For a stronger flavor, chill the jug for 30 minutes first.
What you’ll need
- Large jug
A little kitchen wisdom
- Optional infusion time is additional to the listed preparation time.
- Sparkling water can replace still water; add it just before serving.
- Wash produce well under running water.
Saving some for later
Keep the jug refrigerated at 4°C / 40°F or below and consume within 24 hours. Use clean utensils to serve. Discard if left at room temperature for more than 2 hours.
