Recipe File: DIY Cucumber Mint Detox Drink

October 2, 2015

best detox drink

Many people today are choosing all-natural approaches to improve their health and lose weight. The best detox drink will help you accomplish both of these goals. It is a refreshing beverage that is easy to make, and contains only natural ingredients.

The Benefits Of The Cucumber Mint Drink

There are important benefits to each ingredient in this drink. When the ingredients are combined together, you will have optimum benefits. In my opinion, it truly is the best detox drink for improving your health and weight loss.

: Cucumber

One compound found in cucumber is the amino acid known as citrulline. Citrulline helps your body detox by removing ammonia from your body. Your kidneys and liver will work more effectively, and your cells will be healthier.

: Lime

Your digestive system will work more effectively when you consume lime or lime juice. It also helps the body break down fats from the foods you eat.

: Water

Water is the healthiest product you can drink. It flushes harmful toxins from the body, flushes waste from the intestines, and helps the kidneys and liver work more effectively.

: Mint Leaves

There is more to mint than its delicious taste. It improves the effectiveness of the digestive system, breaks down the fat from your food, and relaxes the muscles in your stomach.

How To Make Your Drink

In a large drinking cup or glass, combine the following ingredients:

  • fresh, pure water (3/4 of the way)
  • 3-4 cucumber slices
  •  2-3 slices of lime
  • 1-2 mint sprigs

Do not remove the skins from the cucumber and lime.

Place it in the refrigerator, and allow it to steep overnight.

Enjoy!

Tips For Enjoying Your Detox Beverage

Here are some tips to help you gain the most from your drink.

Tip 1. First, pour the water into the container before you add the other ingredients.

Tip 2. Second, add some fresh lemon juice for extra flavor.

Tip 3. Third, the drink will taste better when it is icy cold. However, you should not place ice in the container. This will cause your drink to become diluted. If you want the drink to be icy cold, place ice cubes in each individual glass when you are ready to drink it.

Tip 4. Enjoy it while on the go!

best detox drink, savvy infusion

I take my flavor infusion bottle with me everywhere I go. I just toss it in my bag when I’m heading to the gym, a yoga class, or on hikes. I chose this Savvy Infusion water bottle because it’s:

  • Eco-friendly
  • Can hold 24 fluid ounces which is perfect for long commutes
  • Fits perfectly in my car cup holder
  • The bottle is leak-proof

…and it’s just so easy to use!

As you can see, I filled the bottle with water and ice, then I placed the cucumber, mint leaves, and lime in the infuser. Thanks to the bottle’s double-walled construction, it also provides insulation for hot or cold liquids. With the weather cooling down, I look forward to making herbal tea! Head on over to Amazon, to purchase your own water bottle (Note: It comes with a free ebook filled with tips and recipes)!

Detox For Health And Weight Loss

Toxins and impurities in your body can make you ill. Better overall health and a lower risk of illness are important benefits of the detox beverage.

It can help you lose weight, too. Cleansing your system with this tasty beverage will eliminate the waste in your digestive tract and help shed those extra pounds. A clean, effective digestive system is the first step to reaching your weight loss goal.

There are many products available for detox and colon cleanse. One important benefit to this particular drink is it is completely natural. You can enjoy one or more glasses each day without experiencing harmful side effects.

Another benefit is the drink is wonderfully inexpensive. Unlike products that can break your budget, each ingredient costs very little. You may already have the ingredients at home to make the best detox drink. All you need to do is combine the ingredients and enjoy it.

    […] Cucumber water has long been a “secret” of many high end restaurants to add that delicious extra flavor, and what isn’t made more refreshing by mint and lime? Make sure to peel the cucumbers before adding the slices as the outer skin can cause some bitterness to seep in that messes up the flavor. See my version of this recipe here. […]
