This Cucumber-Lime Aqua Fresca combines fresh cucumber, lime, mint and zero-sugar vodka to make a refreshing drink without the guilt. It’s Keto-friendly, gluten-free and packed full of flavor.

What makes this recipe Keto-Friendly?

The biggest reason this recipe is keto-friendly is because there is no sugar in it. Yes, even in the vodka – no sugar!

Sugar is one of the biggest “no-no’s” when partaking in the Keto diet. Since this recipe uses a natural sweetener and alternative to sugar, it’s Keto!!

Keto Cucumber-Lime Agua Fresca

What you need to make it:

• Truvia Sweetener (you can use sugar if you are not on the Keto diet)
• Smirnoff Cucumber-Lime Zero Sugar Infusions
• 1-2 Cucumber ribbons
• Cucumber puree
• Fresh lime juice
• Bottled Mineral Water
• Lime Wheel
• Fresh Mint Sprig
• Glass

How to Make it:

Start by riming an old fashioned glass or tall cocktail glass with the Truvia or sugar.

Tip: I like to use some of the lime juice to make the rim sticky before adding the sweetener.

Next, line the glass with cucumber ribbons and fill with ice.

In a cocktail stirring glass, combine the Smirnoff Cucumber-Lime Zero Sugar Infusion, cucumber puree, lime juice and mineral water.

Pour over ice.

Garnish with cucumber ribbons, lime wheels and mint sprigs and serve!

Enjoy!

Now I know what you’re thinking, “where did you find sugar-free vodka?” and honestly, I didn’t even know such a thing existed either until the other day.
