CUCUMBER REFRESHER
The sun is here, the light, the warmth, it feels so good! To refresh you, here is a green and very good non-alcoholic cocktail: a cucumber cooler. The cooler is a cocktail with or without alcohol based on vegetables or fresh fruit, mixed or centrifuged. The best known is the cucumber one, surprising and very refreshing, but you can opt for other vegetables or fruits. Personally I could drink this all day!
