Cut the cucumbers into small pieces and put them into the blender. Squeeze the lime juice over them and add a quarter of a whole lime.
Add the sugar and blend until smooth.
Pour in the cold water, add the lightly bruised mint leaves and refrigerate for 1–2 hours.
Before serving, strain the lemonade through a fine sieve, pressing the pulp lightly with a spoon.
Serve chilled, with ice if you like.
