Delish! And it's also great blended with a little crushed ice, dash of stevia, and fresh mint! - 3/25/09

Thanks for the comment. I do put in ice, but try to stay away from artificial sweetners. Have never tried stevia, does it leave an aftertaste?

This was good.....I was not expecting it to be so tasty. I did not peel the cucumber.........do you? I meant I peeled the cucumer....should it be left unpeeled? DUH..where is my head today
Thanks...have never used cucumber peels because of the wax but will try maybe organic. - 4/2/09

I believe there are many vitamins and minerals in vegetable skins and seeds. I never peel the cucumbers.
