Chop a cucumber into small chunks with a knife. Put the cucumber pieces into a food processor and blend until a smooth puree forms. If desired, add 2 tablespoons of fresh mint leaves or a few small pieces of melon to the processor. Blend until all ingredients are fully combined.

Pour 2 1/2 cups of granulated white sugar, cane sugar or brown sugar into a bowl.

Drizzle 4 tablespoons of extra-virgin olive oil over the sugar. If you don't like or have olive oil, you can use any other kind. Try sesame, almond or safflower oil.

Stir the sugar and the oil together until a thick paste forms. Add the cucumber puree and mix well.

Add a bit more oil if the scrub is too thick. If it's too runny, add some more sugar.

Pour the mixture into a container and cover with a lid. Use the scrub immediately, or store it in the refrigerator.
