This is a really tasty and refreshing drink, which not only hydrates you and improves your digestion, but also offers many wonderful detoxing benefits. I like to drink this first thing in the morning to kick start my day.
Lemon water in the morning is a great way to get a good portion of your essential daily vitamin C.
Chilled water can be a bit of a shock to your digestive system, especially if you are drinking it first thing in the morning. A good tip for this drink is once it has steeped overnight in the fridge, pour it into a glass or bottle and wait until it reaches room temperature before drinking it, or add a little hot water.
1. Add all ingredients to a large jug.
2. Allow to steep overnight in the fridge to release all the flavours.

Adding mint leaves, lemon or cucumber slices are simple and natural ways to add a little flavour to your water whist cleansing and replenishing your body at the same time.
Lemons are a natural detoxifier. They help to cleanse the body by flushing out toxins, whilst also boosting your immune system and aiding better digestion.
Mint is also good for digestion and provides a touch of sweetness without the sugar.
Cucumbers are 96% water, so they provide a subtle flavour and extra hydration.
