Put the cucumbers, sugar and lime juice in the jar of your blender and process with 3 cups cold water. Blend on high until smooth. Then pour them mixture through a sieve into a large bowl. Taste and season with sugar or lime juice if needed. If you’re serving the agua fresca over ice, maybe use a little less water. This will keep about 3 days although it never lasts that long here.
