Sassy Water

January 11, 2009 · WCC Administr@tr · 4 Comments

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!

Sassy Water
recipe from Flat Belly Dietdsc00473-5901648

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!
