Ingredients
  

1 medium cucumber, thinly sliced

1 large lemon, thinly sliced

10-12 fresh mint leaves

8 cups filtered water

Ice cubes (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Ingredients: Begin by thoroughly washing both the cucumber and lemon under running water to remove any impurities. Using a sharp knife, slice the cucumber and lemon into thin rounds, aiming for uniform thickness to enhance the flavor infusion.

    Combine the Ingredients: In a spacious pitcher, place the cucumber slices, lemon slices, and fresh mint leaves. To unlock the full potential of the mint, gently muddle the leaves with the back of a spoon or a muddler, pressing lightly to release their aromatic oils.

      Add Water: Carefully pour in the filtered water until it completely covers the cucumber, lemon, and mint mixture. If you prefer your detox water chilled, feel free to add a handful of ice cubes at this stage.

        Infuse the Water: Cover the pitcher and place it in the refrigerator. Allow the detox water to infuse for a minimum of 1 to 2 hours for a refreshing taste. For optimal flavor extraction, consider letting it steep overnight.

          Serve: After infusing, give the mixture a gentle stir to redistribute the flavors. Pour the detox water into glasses, and for an added touch, include extra cucumber and lemon slices as a garnish if desired.

            Enjoy: Savor this revitalizing detox water throughout the day, hydrating yourself with each refreshing sip. For continued enjoyment, you can refill the pitcher with more filtered water a couple of times using the same fruit and herb mixture for extended flavor.
