Peel the cucumbers and slice them lengthwise. Use a spoon to scoop out and discard the seeds. Roughly chop the cucumbers into pieces.
In a blender, combine the chopped cucumbers, Greek yogurt, mint leaves, dill leaves, and green onions.
Add the lemon juice, garlic clove, olive oil, sea salt, and black pepper to the blender.
Pour in the cold water to help with blending and to reach your desired consistency.
Blend the mixture on high speed until smooth. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
Transfer the soup to a large bowl or container, cover, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld and the soup to chill thoroughly.
Before serving, stir the soup well, then ladle it into bowls. Garnish with additional mint leaves or a drizzle of olive oil if desired.
