Cucumber Spa Mix
Simply stated, spa mix is delicious with everything and for good reason it is the prime component for many of Alberta’s most beloved beverages. The Spa Mix is always bright and fresh, primarily due to the short shelf life, which is both a blessing and a curse. It is possible to “refresh” the mixture which will keep for 3-4 days, as long as its been kept cool, by adding half a cucumber  to your existing stock and letting it settle for 30 minutes or so before serving.  Another way to keep the Spa Mix always tasting top shelf is to strain the mixture, discarding the cucumber but allowing the majority of the spices to remain. The Spa Mix is prime freezer material, a frozen social occasion drink success always at the ready for your next garden party, ladies luncheon or office soirée.

The result of this period was the creation of the Spa Mix recipe as we now know it. Enjoy.
