It's June! That means it's already hot here in Texas and there will be many more sweltering summery days to come in the next 3 or 4 months. It's also the time of year when drinking water is not only a good idea, it's essential. I have never been a big water drinker but I am trying to really make an effort to get 8 - 10 glasses of water in each day this summer. In order to do that, I have really enjoyed making and drinking my version of Spa Water. Who doesn't enjoy a trip to the spa? The fancy water that they have while you are waiting for your treatment is delicious and very easy to replicate at home. It also ensures that you can enjoy a little piece of the spa even on a Wednesday afternoon while you are working. So drink up and Enjoy!
Spa Water
1 cucumber shredded with a grater
1/2 cup of mint either crushed or chopped
1 limes -sliced
1 lemon - squeezed
Water
Soak the shredded cucumber and mint in 3 cups of water overnight in the fridge. Strain the mixture into a glass pitcher. Add the juice of one lemon, 1 lime (sliced thinly) and fill the rest of the pitcher with ice cold water. Serve and enjoy.
For a twist, add a sprig or two of rosemary.
