2 cucumbers, peeled and cut into small cubes

1 (16 ounce) container plain yogurt

¼ cup minced fresh dill

4 cloves garlic, pressed

2 teaspoons olive oil

salt to taste

1 tablespoon water, or as needed (Optional)

Place cucumbers in a large bowl. Whisk yogurt in a separate bowl using a fork until yogurt is smooth and liquefied; pour over cucumbers. Add dill, garlic, oil, and salt to cucumber mixture; toss to coat. Stir in enough water to reach desired consistency. Refrigerate until chilled, at least 30 minutes.

Ladle soup into serving bowls; add about 2 ice cubes to each bowl.

Balkan-style yogurt is best. Optionally, a few tablespoons of crushed walnuts or toasted almond slices may be added as a garnish or on the side.
