Recipes Beverages Healthy

Many people who are actively pursuing a healthier lifestyle forget that their drinking habits are almost as important as their eating habits. Of course, you hear everywhere that you should drink at least 1.5 liters a day, but it's good to take a look at what exactly that 1.5 liters consists of. Fruit juices? Milk? Or just water and tea? Personally, I pretty much only drink water and tea, with 1 or 2 cups of coffee a day. I love tea, but I find water rather bland in taste. Therefore, and because of the good properties of lemon, I want to share with you this "recipe" for Refreshing Detox water with lemon juice and mint.

Recipe

What does lemon juice do for you? Lemon juice cleans your body and has a positive effect on intestines and liver, but is also good for the skin. In addition, lemon juice contains various vitamins, lime, copper, iron and potassium. The juice of a lemon in a jug of water, with some coin not only looks nice, but it is also really good for you. Also not unimportant, it is very refreshing and therefore delicious on warmer days.

It is not a real recipe, because you have to do so little for it. But because of the lemon slices and mint it not only looks super, the lemon also gives extra nutritional value to your boring glass of water.
