Cucumber Juice Cocktail

Spring is a time of rebirth, regrowth and renewal. It is also a time of new beginnings, new life, new promise and brand new opportunities. It is a time when trees wake up from their long winters nap and redress their branches with new leaves, buds and blossoms. It is a time when tiny shoots bravely poke their way through the earth, animals wake up from hibernation and birds return back from migration. With everything in nature starting over so fresh and new, there can be no better time to make positive changes. Springtime gives everyone an open invitation to explore personal growth and development. It is an opportunity to spring clean our lives – mind, body and spirit.

Cucumber Juice Cocktail

Cucumber, green apple, lemon and ginger juice cocktail

The credits for this delightful juice cocktail go to Shanon Sterringer who is the pastor at The Hildegard Haus in the Village of Fairport Harbor and author of Forbidden Grace. As she put it, “I created a little bit of sunshine inside with my juicer.” I couldn’t run fast enough to the grocery store to pick up the ingredients to create a little sunshine in my life. And it did just that!

2 unpeeled cucumber, 1 lemon, 1 green apple and a piece of peeled ginger
Liquid sunshine
I juiced the cucumbers first, then removed the pulp from the juicer and made cucumber water for later.

Hi everyone! It's no secret. I'm pretty addicted to eating clean and leading a healthy lifestyle. I am a registered nurse and chronic condition educator (diabetes, heart failure, hypertension, obesity & COPD). Nothing excites me more, personally and professionally, then helping others take control of their health. It really is a passion of mine. That's why I created this blog! When I am not in the kitchen creating healthy eats or digging through scientific literature, I enjoy hiking, biking, gardening and spending time with hubby Dennis. Oh and I am a mother to a loud mouthed parrot named Pickles, a 20 year old black cat named Charlie and about 50,000 honey bees.

  2. I made this cocktail and boy was it good. Would have never though of this combination. I bet this might be good with limes too

    1. Hi Nancy! I’m happy you enjoyed the cocktail. I agree it is an interesting combination and I think limes would add a slightly different twist to it for sure.

  3. This turned out to be the most interesting soup. I adjusted the seasonings a bit to my liking. I will make again. TY
