• 1 Teaspoon fresh rosemary

Directions

This recipe may be made nonalcoholic by replacing the gin with 1 additional ounce of club soda.    

1. Peel, remove seeds and coarsely chop the cucumber.  Measure out 1/2 cup and place into a blender. 
2. Add the lemon juice, blueberries and granular sugar substitute (if using sucralose use 4 tsp and add 2g NC to the total).  Blend on high until throughly blended. 
3. Add the rosemary and pulse 1-2 times just to chop up the rosemary to release it's flavor.  Strain with a fine mesh strainer and press on the pulp to release all the liquid into a glass.  Discard the pulp.
