For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a minced clove of garlic or a small piece of ginger to the soup while cooking the cucumbers. Garnish with a sprig of cilantro or a drizzle of chili oil for a touch of elegance and spice. The soup can be served immediately or chilled for later consumption. Chilling enhances the flavors and makes it even more refreshing.
