To garnish, cut 3-4 extremely thin slices from a medium English cucumber. Soak the slices in ice water for 10–15 minutes. They'll stiffen.
Peel the remaining cucumber and cut it into tiny pieces. In a blender, combine the cucumber, sugar, mint leaves, and water.
Blend until smooth. Pour the mixture through a fine-mesh strainer.
To extract as much liquid as possible, press the pulp with a spoon or spatula. Discard the pulp.
Stir in the lime juice, black salt, and the remaining two cups of water. Pour one or two thin slices of cucumber and 3-4 ice cubes into each glass.
Pour the beverage into the cups. Garnish the cucumber cooler with some lime rings and mint leaves. Serve immediately!
