Ingredients
  

1 medium cucumber

1 lemon

10 fresh mint leaves

1 liter of filtered water

Ice cubes (optional)

Instructions
 

Prep the Cucumber: Wash the cucumber thoroughly under running water. Slice it into thin rounds using a sharp knife or a mandoline for even slices. You can leave the skin on for added nutrients and a vibrant look.

    Slice the Lemon: Cut the lemon in half and squeeze the juice from one half into the pitcher. Then, slice the other half into thin wedges.

      Combine Ingredients: In a large pitcher, add the cucumber slices, lemon wedges, and mint leaves. The mint will add a refreshing twist to the water.

        Add Water: Pour the filtered water over the cucumber, lemon, and mint mixture. Stir gently to combine all the ingredients without bruising the mint leaves too much.

          Infuse: Let the mixture sit in the refrigerator for at least 2-4 hours, or overnight for a stronger flavor profile. The longer it sits, the more flavorful it becomes.

            Serve: When ready to serve, fill a glass with ice cubes if desired, then pour in the detox cucumber water. Garnish with additional cucumber slices and mint if you like.

              Enjoy: Sip throughout the day to stay hydrated and refreshed!
