Hello friends of the 
Cucumber juice drinks are very typical in Aceh. Did you know, usually in our area this cucumber juice drink is often served to guests at big events, such as weddings, social gatherings, thanksgiving as a drink companion for dessert. I don't know why this fruit is the choice for drinks at events like that, whether because the price is affordable and easy to get or because it is more popular. I don't know .. Usually they make cucumber juice combined with green syrup like melon flavored syrup and add basil seeds to it. But this time I want to share with you how to make simple cucumber juice but of course it is still refreshing. Before that, let's find out the health benefits of cucumbers.
One of the benefits of consuming cucumber juice is that it can help lower blood pressure. It turns out that cucumbers contain a lot of nutrients needed by those who have hypertension problems. Cucumbers contain a lot of potassium, this substance will later control a person's blood pressure. And there are many more contents in it. Therefore, we can use cucumbers to overcome this condition. Because lowering blood pressure is not always by taking drugs, right? If there is a natural way to overcome it, why not. Let's just see the ingredients and how to make it.
Ingredient Needed:
- 2 pieces of cucumber / Aceh cucumber
- 10 tablespoons of granulated sugar
- Sufficient ice cubes
- 1 liter of boiled water
Preparation:

The first thing we do is wash and peel the cucumber. Roughly grate the cucumber using a grater. You can also smooth it using a blender. I don't like it if the cucumber is too smooth because it doesn't taste good when drunk.

Second: pour into another container. Add granulated sugar. Stir until the granulated sugar is crushed or melted (to make it faster, you can dissolve the granulated sugar with hot water in another container before putting it in the container containing the grated cucumber) Add ice cubes to taste. Add boiled water. And done
It's very easy to make this refreshing drink, and we know the benefits we will get from consuming it.
This cucumber juice drink is good to drink after you eat meat, especially after you eat goat meat because goat / lamb contains more cholesterol. So if you really want to eat lamb but you have problems with cholesterol, you should prepare this cucumber / drink.
Oh yes, actually to get the benefits of this cucumber fruit, you don't have to make juice, or process it first, you can also eat this fruit directly and the skins. That's all for today.
