Step 1
Wash and peel the cucumbers. Slice them in half lengthwise and use a spoon to remove the seeds. Chop the cucumbers into large chunks.
Step 2
Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh.
Step 3
In a blender, combine the cucumber chunks, avocado flesh, fresh dill, lemon juice, garlic cloves, and cold water.

With the blender running, slowly drizzle in the olive oil. Continue blending until the soup is creamy and smooth.
Step 6
Taste the soup and add sea salt and black pepper to your preference. Blend again to mix the seasonings evenly.
Step 7
Transfer the soup to a bowl or pitcher and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to chill and allow the flavors to meld together.
