Healthy & Yummy Summer Drink


Seriously, the best drink ever.
Thanks to my dear friend, Pinterest....

I've been searching for some healthy alternatives to pop, juice, lemonade, etc.
I finally stumbled upon these healthy fruit detox drinks!

What's a Detox drink?
Detoxification is the process of eliminating toxic substances from your body. 

Normally a detox is something that you would do over a few days or even up to a weeks time. [This drink is not intended for that purpose but there are many that are!] So, If you are looking to revive yourself by increasing your energy level and your overall well-being, you may want to try a Detox! 

(Before beginning any detox diet, it is always good to check with your doctor, 
especially if there are any health concerns).

My recipe:

1 Lemon & 1 Lime Cut into Slices
(HintThere are many health benefits of lemons that have been known for centuries. The two biggest are lemons’ strong antibacterial, antiviral, and immune-boosting powers and their use as a weight loss aid because lemon juice is a digestive aid and liver cleanser. Lemons contain many substances--notably citric acid, calcium, magnesium, vitamin C, bioflavonoids, pectin, and limonene--that promote immunity and fight infection.)

Fresh Mint Leaves
Wash and pick 10-12 nice large pieces to throw into the gallon


1 Gallon pitcher of water
Mix ingredients together
Put in the refrigerator overnight 
and serve with ice for a delicious refreshing 
& healthy summer drink!
