Grate the cucumbers into a strainer, sprinkle with a pinch of salt, drain for 5 minutes, and squeeze lightly.
In a wide bowl, whisk yogurt, water, lemon juice, and grated garlic until smooth.
Add the drained cucumber, finely chopped dill, salt, and black pepper.
Rest the soup in the refrigerator for 30 minutes so the flavor settles and the cold texture thickens.
Serve in a cold bowl with fresh mint leaves, small cucumber cubes, and a few drops of olive oil.
💡 Tip: Salt-draining the cucumber pulls out excess water; grate the garlic very fine so it does not dominate.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve ice cold with dill, cucumber cubes, olive oil, and crisp dark bread.
