    Years ago, a friend took my husband and I to fancy restaurant in our area. Between courses, the waiter gave us cucumber sorbet. My husband asked what it was and the waiter told him that it was to cleanse his palate. My husband answered back he used pallets to stack bricks on. 😂 Lol! (We owned a landscape company!)

      Genius, I’ve made cucumber lemonade before and always have a glut of them at this time of year. This was, simple, delicious and will definitely be made again!

        IT really is! Oddly enough, it’s supposed to be almost 90° here tomorrow. I may have to make another batch!

      Cucumbers are always so refreshing especially on hot summer days. I love cocktails made with cucumber in the summer and I am sure this sorbet would be just as refreshing and cooling.
