Fix and swap

Didn't come out right? Fix it.

  • Too sweet

    Add more cucumber or a squeeze of lemon to pull the bottle back toward crisp.

  • Too sharp

    Add a few cucumber pieces or a small apple wedge to soften the edge.

  • No cucumber?

    Use zucchini. Keeps yield, but shifts the base flavor.

  • No dill?

    Use parsley. Keeps an herbal finish, but changes the aroma.
