Looking for a way to jazz up water? My friend Betsy prepared this ‘Sassy Water’ which comes from the Flat Belly Diet. It has a nice tang and is said to help with digestion!
2 liters water (about 8 and 1/2 cups)
1 teaspoon freshly grated ginger
1 medium cucumber, peeled and thinly sliced
1 medium lemon, thinly sliced
12 small spearmint leaves.
Directions Combine all ingredients in a large pitcher and let flavors blend overnight. Drink the entire pitcher by the end of each day.
Note: The ingredients in Sassy water aren’t just for flavor: the ginger helps calm and soothe your GI tract.
I *love* water with cucumber. So refreshing.
I am definitely going to try adding in some grated ginger!
this sounds so refreshing!!
Thanks for posting! My husband is always on me to drink more water, and this could definitely motivate me.
I love water and I love sassying up water!! Great.
