Detox Water

I love making flavored waters and this by far is my favorite recipe.  I adapted it from The Science Of Eating.

16 cups of cold water

2 large English cucumbers, thinly sliced

2-3 lemons, unpeeled and sliced

A 4"-5" hunk of ginger, peeled and sliced 

At least 24 mint leaves, torn

Put everything in a large jar and refrigerate for at least 12 hours before drinking.

You can add more water as you drink until you notice the flavors weakening.

Put Blood Oranges in blender on high and pulverize. While blender is still running, add the rest of the ingredients one at a time blending thoroughly after each addition. If the smoothie is too thich for you, you can add water or OJ until it is the desired consistency.
