Instructions
Blend the Cucumber
Peel and roughly chop the cucumber. Place it in a blender and blend until completely smooth. Strain through a fine mesh sieve into a pitcher, pressing to extract all the juice. Discard the solids.
Muddle the Mint
Place the fresh mint leaves in the bottom of the pitcher with the cucumber juice. Gently muddle the mint using a muddler or the back of a spoon to release the oils. Do not over-muddle or the mint will turn bitter.
Add Sweetener and Citrus
Pour the simple syrup and fresh lime juice into the pitcher. Add the sea salt and stir well to combine all the flavors together.
Add Sparkling Water
Slowly pour the sparkling water into the pitcher and stir gently to preserve the carbonation. Taste and adjust sweetness or lime juice as needed.
Serve and Garnish
Fill glasses with ice cubes and pour the cucumber mint fizz over the top. Garnish each glass with a fresh cucumber slice and a sprig of mint. Serve immediately.
