Method
Preparation
Prepare the Cucumbers
Wash the cucumbers thoroughly under running water. Peel the cucumbers if desired, then chop them into smaller chunks to facilitate blending.
Blend the Ingredients
In a blender, add the chopped cucumbers, fresh mint leaves, lime juice, and sugar. Pour in 2 cups of water to help with blending. Blend until smooth and well combined.
Straining and Serving
Strain the Mixture
Using a fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth, strain the blended mixture into a large pitcher to remove the pulp and mint leaves, pressing down with a spoon to extract as much liquid as possible.
Add Water and Ice
After straining, add the remaining 2 cups of water to the pitcher. Stir well to combine. Add ice to chill the agua fresca before serving.
