For a hint of herbal freshness, add a few mint or basil leaves to the blender along with the cucumbers. Adjust the amount of sweetener according to your taste and the sweetness of your cucumbers and limes. If you don't have sucralose, you can use other sweeteners like sugar, honey, or agave nectar. Start with a smaller amount and adjust to taste. For a creamier texture, add a small piece of avocado to the blender.

Jun 3, 2024I found it a bit too sweet with 4 tablespoons of Splenda, so I reduced it to 3, and it was just right for me.
