Lemon Cucumber Water
1glass water pitcher
1 gallon cold water
1/2 cucumber, sliced
1 lemon, sliced
small handful of fresh mint leaves (optional)
Place all the ingredients into a pitcher, let sit in your refrigerator for 1 hour up to overnight. Serve over ice for a cool and very refreshing drink. Will keep a few days in the refrigerator.
Options: Try replacing the lemon with a few slices of oranges, grapefruits, strawberries or apples! Try other herbs you have around you as well, Sweet Basil, Rosemary or Lavender would be so good..
We had a similar drink at an event with a raw food caterer; ours also had lime slices and ginger slices. My son even loved it without sugar.
