Summer coolers - Cucumber and strawberries

Summers brings life to many of us, the trees full of bright brilliant flowers, pink, yellow, lavender, violet, white and cherry blossoms falling as you walk the streets of Bangalore.

To beat the heat we end up drinking water, tender coconut water and freshly home made smoothies.

Here is one such smoothie with a twist





Cucumber and strawberries smoothie

Ingredients

5 strawberries

1 cucumber

1 cup yogurt/curd

1 green chili

1/4 tsp salt

1 cup water

5 ice cubes

Tips

Use fresh strawberries and cucumber for better results

Drink the smoothie immediately after making. Or make it just before serving.

Method

* Chop cucumber and slit strawberries. I have not peeled the cucumbers.

* Slit green chili.

* In a mixer/ blender add cucumber, strawberries, yogurt, water, ice cubes and salt. Blend into a smooth smoothie. 

* Serve in glass jars.
