Ingredients
  

1 large cucumber, thinly sliced

1 lemon, thinly sliced

1 lime, thinly sliced

10-12 fresh mint leaves

8 cups of filtered water

Ice cubes (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Ingredients: Begin by washing the cucumber, lemon, and lime under cool running water to remove any impurities. Slice the cucumber into thin rounds, and do the same with the lemon and lime. These thin slices will help to release more flavor into the water.

    Combine Ingredients: Take a large pitcher and add the sliced cucumber, lemon, lime, and the fresh mint leaves. The mint will infuse a cool, refreshing flavor that harmonizes beautifully with the brightness of the citrus and the crispness of the cucumber.

      Add Water: Carefully pour 8 cups of filtered water over the mixture in the pitcher, ensuring that all the slices and mint are fully submerged. This is crucial for proper infusion, allowing the flavors to meld together.

        Chill: Cover the pitcher tightly with a lid or plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator. Let it chill for a minimum of 2 hours, although allowing it to steep overnight will yield an even more robust flavor profile.

          Serve: When you are ready to enjoy your drink, gently stir the infused water to mix the flavors. If you like, pour the water into glasses over ice for a refreshing chill. For an added touch, garnish each glass with a sprig of mint and a slice of cucumber or lemon on the rim.

            Enjoy: Sip on this delightful and hydrating detox cucumber water throughout the day. It's not only invigorating but also perfect for serving at gatherings, picnics, or simply enjoying as a day-to-day refreshment!
