Greetings beautiful people,
Today's DIY happens to be one of my favourite,yaaaaaass!!! Even if we're still in the wet season,the sun still shows its prowess and dominance by lashing us everyday on this side of the equator,lol. That's why I always have my sunglasses and water bottle with me. Water bottle usually contains 250 ml of water and by the time I get back home,I still have like 75 ml left,I try to balance with green tea but that's another story all together,I mean we're supposed to take at least 8 liters daily right?,smh. So I heard about detox water and since then I've been taking about 3 litres daily,baby steps right. Okay,let's get to it. First,detox water is water infused with as many as 3 different fruits,through you know,osmosis.. this water has some serious detoxifying abilities. Today's comprises of tangerine,lime and cucumber.The vitamin C in lemons,lime and oranges helps to clear the digestive tract and cleanse the liver. There’s also an enzyme in citrus that aids in breaking down fat and toxins.Cucumber is great for re-hydration and has anti-inflammatory properties.
Assemble desired fruits, it's always best to include 1 or 2 citrus fruit for that sour taste but it's okay if you don't want to. So I cut up one tangerine,one lime and half of a cucumber.
Cut into thin slices,the pink liquid there is strawberry extract,will add that for extra flavour,add the fruit slices into a jug.
Pour into this mix 1.5 liters if clean water.
Pour in the strawberry extract,
Cover and keep in the fridge and drink after 30 minutes. Can be stored for as long as 2days.
Store in the refrigerator.
If you are considering keeping it overnight,remove the rinds from the orange and lemon.
