You still have those? I haven't seen those around since I was about 10! Cool!

Seriously, though, what fer do you need the cucumber juice?

Secret government project.

I tried a few methods, eventually settled on blender + cheese cloth. Did the trick, albeit a little tedious (I made a LOT of cucumber juice).

Now, anyone need a few pounds of dry cucumber pulp?

I'm pretty sure you're under some sort of obligation to tell us what it's for since you took the advice. It's a sort of payment thing. Right? Am I right? Come on... don't be a such a tease.

Very carefully

Okay, I wanted to make sure the experiment worked before saying anything.

While in San Francisco, being lame Top Chef fan geeks, we had dinner at Hubert Keller's Fleur de Lys, a VERY nice restaurant. We had an outstanding meal.

Being there with 2 preggies who couldn't enjoy the wine pairings, our waiter offered to have the bar make them a non alcoholic drink. What he brought was really really good. Muddled basil, agave, cucumber juice, pineapple juice. He also mentioned that when making it with booze they use Hendick's gin (a slightly cucumbery gin) and vodka.

So I set about trying to reproduce the non-alky version and make a good alky version. And I must say I did a pretty good job!
