Cucumber Smoothie is a coolant food for summer.
I am on the look out for better break fast option these days and by far this has been the tastiest one, Cucumber Smoothie. It’s ideal for summer and hardly takes a couple of minutes to whip it.
Cucumber has cooling properties and helps to stay dehydrated. It prevents constipation and formation of kidney stones. It helps in preventing heart disease. It regulates blood pressure and helps in controlling diabetes.
Yoghurt helps to keep your gut healthy. It contains probiotics that keep your digestive and immune system working well. It is a good source of protein. It is also good for bone health. Studies have shown that it aids in weight loss.

Simply superb. I love breakfast smoothies specially this kind. Thank you for sharing.
Love this refreshing and soothing summer drink…Would love to grab it right away…Good as a breakfast smoothie!!
Very healthy, refreshing and yummy smoothie for this season 🙂
Refreshing! What can be better than combining the goodness of yogurt and cucumber in one summer drink. We make something similar here – a chaas with buttermilk, cucumber and mint.
Perfect summer treat, delicious. I will love a chilled glass for summer for sure.
This is more or less like salted lassi with cucmber and must be refreshing cooled drink for summers as cucumbers are known for calming properties.
Cucumber is must in summer and smoothie using that is a lovely n healthy idea Jayashree
In summer, cucumber is the king of vegetables as far as I am concerned. I try to have it almost every day and this is a great way to use it.
Awesome drink for summer.
A perfect summer drink.. I love lassi and will try it with cucumber next time.
