Cucumber Lemon Detox Water Drink

I am on a roll! I have consumed my daily recommended water intake but only because of amazing recipes just like this Cucumber Lemon Detox water drink recipe here! I cannot drink plain water. Yuck! Nope. I can never drink enough plain water. We all know how important it is to drink the daily recommended amount. It helps aid in digestion. You need to get things moving in there and keep yourself healthy. It’s easier to do when you have a drink recipe that tastes good and has all the benefits along with it!

Here’s what you need to make this Cucumber Lemon Detox Water Drink recipe:

1 cucumber sliced
2 to 3 small lemons sliced
1 gallon of water
Optional: Add a bit of mint for sweetness

Add all of the fruit to the water and place it in the fridge overnight. I LOVE using my Sterilite 1 gallon pitcher because it’s light and easy to pour from. Serve it cold and feel free to add a bit of mint for sweetness. It also aids in digestion too.

You can reuse the fruit twice too.
