Cool Cucumber

This one came on the TV in one of the Kannada Channels..and my mum gave it a try. We liked it and tried it at my place. This definetely is a good cooling option for this Hot Summer that Bangalore is facing this time.

Ingredients:
Cucumber- 2-3 skinned and cut into cubes
Lemon- 2 medium sized
Sugar- About 4-5 tbsp..or according to your taste
Pinch of salt
Pundina leaves- for garnishing

Method:
Grind the cucumber, lemon, sugar & salt together in a blender and strain it with a strainer. Serve it chilled. Dont forget to garnish it with one or two leaves of Pudina. You could also add Jeera powder for a different flavour (tip from Anjali). My mum added Elaichi instead..
