Easy Cucumber Lime Punch Recipe

Ingredients:

• 1 or 2 trays of ice
• 2 liter bottle of DIET lemon-lime soda
• 1 12-ounce can frozen limeade
• 1 cucumber, sliced thin
• fresh lime wedges for garnish, optional

Instructions:

1. In a large pitcher or bowl, add as much ice as you want. (The more ice you add, the more watered down the drink will be as it melts, of course.)
2. Add the soda and the frozen limeade.
3. Add all of the sliced cucumbers and lime wedges (or reserve some to garnish individual glasses).
4. Stir together until the limeade melts.
5. If you serve it right away, the cucumber flavor will be light. I like to let it sit for an hour or two in the fridge because I like a stronger cucumber flavor. This drink is nice for parties because you can make it ahead and pull it out right when the party starts.

Notes:

I much prefer the flavor of this drink with diet soda. I normally hate the flavor of diet soda but you can't taste it in this recipe. You are welcome to use regular soda, but you may find that it is overly sweet.
