Cucumber Mint Sorbet

Two cucumber posts in a row. Not that they are my favorite fruit (or vegetable?). I just happen to have a lot of them from the CSA. This batch of sorbet used up 3 cucumbers! Yay! And it tastes good. When I mentioned the idea to a couple of people, one said that sounded gross and the other said that sounded like something a Brooklyn restaurant would serve. So I went for it.



And it was good. Really good, in fact. It was just sweet enough, cool and refreshing. Perfect for a hot summer day. Best of all, it's very simple to make.

Ingredients
  • 3 medium cucumbers - peeled

  • A handful of mint leaves

  • 1/4 cup Agave nectar

Directions
  1. Blend everything together until smooth in a blender. Pour into an ice cream maker according to the manufacturer's instructions. Enjoy!
