Refreshing Cucumber Vodka Water

Refreshing Cucumber Vodka Water

Refreshing Cucumber Vodka Water is a light, crisp and clean summer drink that makes you feel as if you are sitting in a spa sipping on cucumber-infused water.

It is still August, so I think I am still allowed to post about “summer drinks” – and good thing, because this ditty is ridiculous!  Picture yourself sitting at your favorite spa.  You have a some weird goop on your face, your hair is up in that towel thing and you are RE-laxed.  The lovely spa attendant (what….that’s a thing), asks if you want some cool, crisp and refreshing cucumber water.  “Hell yeah” you say, because… well, why not. You take a sip and it is like you are drinking the perfect combination of thirst-quenching, cold water and fresh cucumber.  Boom – that is this drink.

I don’t think I am going to box this into as a summer-only drink.  You will definitely be catching me with a glass of this in-hand any time of the year.  Need a bevy and that oh-so-good beer just seems too heavy – try this guy instead.  It is like drinking water – no heaviness.  Just wonderful water and cucumber (oh …..and vodka).

The key is, as with anything, is to go with the good stuff.  Don’t be skimping on your liquor 21 + year-old-people! Believe me it is worth it.  Effen Vodka – if you are listening – Bravo.  Just…. Bravo.

Mix your cucumber vodka with some lime juice, lemon lime Original New York Seltzer , water, ice cubes and several fresh cucumber slices.  Perfection.

Or, if you are in the mood for more of an Old-Fashioned – try the every-popular Strawberry Old-Fashioned.

Hey, summer ain’t over yet!  Soak up every last minute of it!  Cheers!
