This sounds so bloody good...and a great alternative when you just don't feel like alcohol.

A question and comment: When you say put the cucumber slice in the bottle..is that before it's charged, or after? From the video's I've seen the opening on the bottles that use plastic are larger--the penguin model has a much smaller opening, like a normal soda bottle and it would difficult if not impossible to place a cucumber slice in there and remove it.

Ah, interesting. SodaStream bottles have a wide mouth. I meant post-charge. If you can't fit it then add the cucumber to the finished drink and nevermind doing this in-advance step.

Yes, My soda stream uses the glass bottles with narrow opening. Maybe 'muddling' cucumber in the glass would release more of the goodness for those without the wide mouth bottles. I love cucumber based drinks in the summer--so refreshing! Thank you so much for posting these, as summer time and club soda are wonderful!

I must try the ginger syrup. I'm surprised I haven't made it yet.
Also, that drink is begging for a shot of pimms cup #1.

This sounds unique, and really interesting. I love 'normal' water with cucumber slices so this takes it up a notch. Sounds good for my chemo patients too. Thanks for posting.
