Cucumber Punch Drink Recipe
Cucumber punch is a cool and refreshing Mocktail which will punch your spirits up. Cucumbers are so cool and fresh that this punch will not only help you beat the heat but will also help you blow the fatigue off you on a hot summer day.
This cucumber punch mixes cucumber with lime juice or lemonade, pineapple juice, sugar, citrus soda and ginger ale. Pineapple juice can also be substituted with grape juice, but if you are making this punch for kids then it is recommended that use the former as kids like pineapple more. It is a great non-alcoholic beverage which tastes sweet, fizzy, cool, and totally refreshing.
Use the following steps to make your own delicious citrusy cucumber punch and blow the heat and fatigue off you.
