Cucumber Sorbet

4 large or 5 medium cucumbers, peeled and seeded
3 cups water
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 1/2 cups lime juice
1 bunch fresh mint

*recipe can be cut in half if desired

Make a syrup out of the sugar and water by combining and heating, and steep the mint in the syrup on low heat. Remove the mint after 30 min. or so and cool the syrup.

Meanwhile, seed and peel the cucumbers, and puree in a blender or processor. Add the lime juice.

Combine all of the ingredients in the ice cream machine and freeze. A couple of drops of green food coloring can be added for visual appeal but not necessary.
