Get healthier in the new year with this refreshing detox water! I have been drinking this daily and have truly seen the benefits. This water is so refreshing and gets you in the habit of drinking your water intake for the day. With just a few simple ingredients, you will be on your way to a healthier YOU!
To make this refreshing water, slice a half of lemon {be sure to remove the seeds} and a half a cucumber and place in a large pitcher. Add in a handful of fresh mint leaves. Fill the pitcher with water and place in the fridge for at least one hour. I usually make this the night before so it is ready to go for me in the morning. Once the water is finished you can replace it for up to three days before discarding the lemon slices, cucumber and mint leaves.
Why is this healthy for you? Lemons help cleanse your body by flushing out any toxins. They also boost your immune system and help in aid in digestion. Mint is also great for digestion and add a touch of natural sweetness to the water without the added sugar. Lastly, cucumbers are full of water and great for extra hydration and they are high in nutrients.
So go ahead and drink up! Here’s to a healthier YOU in the new year!
