Paleo Cucumber Cilantro Gazpacho

I recently came into some produce after the Crossfit Game (an entire box of cucumbers to be correct), and while it may be a fun challenge to see how many cucumber margs we can drink, we are adults and try to have some level of responsibility, so I needed plan B.  

This is a quick, spicy and refreshing summer soup that is even better on day 2.

Caveman Cocktails!

I'm not sure what to call this...a Caveman Cucumber Lime Fizz??  In any case, sometimes it's nice to have a refreshing cocktail with friends (while trying to resist the corn chips next to the salsa and guac).  Happy Cinco de Mayo everyone!


1 shot good tequila
2 tbs cucumber puree*
Juice from 1 lime
Perrier 
Ice cubes
Lime wedges and cucumber slices for garnish


Put tequila, cucumber puree, and lime juice in a cocktail shaker with some ice and shake the you-know-what out of it (have you seen a shake weight commercial??).  Strain the contents into the glass with ice and top off with Perrier.  Garnish with lime wedges and cucumber slices.


*Peel and seed 1 small cucumber.  Pulse in a food processor until smooth (you can add a couple drops of water if you're having trouble getting it to the right consistency.
