    I was in California last week and this was the most cooling drink I ordered.
    Fresh squeezed limes, cucumber, seeded and cut into small pieces. Add sugar to taste. combine with plenty of ice!

    Haven't had it with lime, but I make lemon/cucumber water. A few slices of cuke, one of lemon in a glass of cold water (I skip the sugar.) Very refreshing!! I'll have to get some limes and try it that way too!

    I'd be "giving it back" in a hurry.....no cukes for me!! Sounds ghastly personally, but actually very refreshing. Sorry I can't try it.

    Tried the cuke water, it was very refreshing. Surprised at the good taste, no sugar was added.
