So many people see me drinking cucumber lemon water and they are always so weirded out. They always skeptically ask me "Are those cucumbers?" It's like I'm from another planet...anywayssss...
Cucumbers help rehydrate you and reverse inflammation.
Lemons help cleanse the body by helping digestion and it also boosts the immune system.
I use about half of a normal size cucumber and about half of a lemon.
Some people who make this also like adding mint, but I don't really see the difference. You might though!
When putting all of it together I usually do a layer of ice, a layer of lemon, another layer of ice, and then cucumbers. It doesn't matter much, you'll find your style!
Other Variation: Although I usually just enjoy this with regular water, it is also really good with sparkling water.
This water can last a couple days actually. When it runs out of water, I just replace it. It's a gift that keeps giving...for at least two days ;) It is like a part of a spa that you can have at home. :)
