Detox

So I was looking around on Pinterest (like always) and I stumbled upon this fancy little health detox drink. It boosts your metabolism, immune system, and supposedly helps your body flush out any water weight your holding in. The recipe seemed simple enough, so I thought, why not?

I went to the store and bought what I needed:
Per 1 gallon of water, recipe calls for:
-1 thinly sliced lemon
-half a thinly sliced cucumber
-handful (10-12) mint leaves (chopped or not)

You let it all sit in the pitcher over night, and then drink up in the morning! Frankly, when you first take a sip of the water, your kind of go into shock because of the lemon/mint combination. At first I was afraid I was going to give up on this health kick because of the taste alone. But, after a few more sips, your body immediately gets used to it! I've had more than 5 water bottles full of it today (trust me, more than I usually drink) and its awesome. Obviously considering its day 1 I haven't seen or felt a difference in me yet, but I'm excited to see what happens within a week or two. Fingers crossed!
