Looking for something refreshing to drink that will not only hydrate you but tastes delicious? This is the drink for you. There is nothing more refreshing then lemon, cucumber and mint water! And wait until you find out the benefits!
Why lemon, mint and cucumber? Good question check out the benefits of each ingredient:
- Lemon: Lemon water makes for a powerful detox drink; lemon juice helps to cleanse and alkalize the body. Add one thinly sliced lemon to a large pitcher, or squeeze fresh lemon juice into your glass. Lemon also aides in digestion and boosts your immune system.
- Mint: Mint adds a touch of sweetness without the sugar, and it also helps settle your stomach and aids in digestion.
- Cucumber: Adding a few slices of cucumber to your water makes for excellent rehydration, and cucumber contains anti-inflammatory properties.
Mix all these ingredients together and you have yourself the perfect beverage for:
Keeping your weight down– Lemons are said to curb hunger pangs thereby reducing trips to the fridge and pantry between meals.
Fine tuning your digestive system – Known for their digestive benefits, lemons help flush out toxins and impurities from our system. Say goodbye to constant heartburn and indigestion. Both lemons and cucumbers are diuretic so your body does not retain excessive water making you feel less bloated. Cucumbers are also very high in fiber which again helps the flushing out process.
Having that perfect skin– Who doesn’t want flawless skin? Drink the magic potion, your skin will go all clear, fresh and radiant.

I have been telling people for years that cucumber is a godsend <3 🙂 I usually add some ginger to mine and its awesome 🙂 This is just another reason why I love natural home remedies so much <3 Instead of spending tons of my hard earned money on toxic medications and doctor bills I would much rather use more alternative medicine.I would highly suggest that everybody start using natural remedies, you will never go back. If you want to learn more about natural remedies I would suggest reading this story.
