Ingredients:
- 2-3 large lemons, thinly sliced
- 1 Cucumber, thinly sliced
- 18-20 mint leaves
- 1/2 – 1 tbsp ginger ground
- 1 gallon of water
Directions
- Thoroughly wash all fruits and veggies and thinly slice the lemon and cucumber.
- Fill container with ingredients and fill to the top with water.
- Soak in fridge overnight and enjoy within 2 days.
If you drink a gallon of water on day 1, you can refill it up and let it soak a second night with the same ingredients (just add more ginger). Mint leaves will start to go bad after about 2 days of soaking.
Be careful not to over-hydrate yourself! An adult whose heart, kidneys, and pituitary gland are functioning properly would have to drink more than two gallons of water a day to develop water intoxication. This condition is most common in persons whose kidney function is impaired and may occur when doctors, nurses, or other healthcare professionals administer greater amounts of water-producing fluids and medications
