Sassy Water Recipe

Sassy Water helps you drink more liquids, get rid of hunger, helps with getting rid of toxins and yeast or water from our fat cells. Do no drink soda as it will sabotages the effects of this healthy drink. This originated from one of the many diet book given to me? Which one??? I do remember the name. However, I have changed the original recipe to my tastes. Please feel free to do the same. The cucumbers seem to be essential and the citrus and ginger root.

2 liters of good water

1 teaspoon freshly graded or thinly sliced ginger root

1/2 cucumber (thinly sliced and half peeled)

1/2 lemon or one very thinly slice (to get more of the flavor squeeze a bit)

Mint leaves (about 12, crumble to release flavor, optional)

COMBINE ALL INGREDIENTS IN A LARGE GLASS PITCHER AND CHILL IN and store REFRIGERATOR TO BLEND the FLAVORS. IF YOU BLEND OVER-NIGHT REMOVE citrus. (It can become too bitter for some pallets.) Adjust this ingredients to your tastes. Make sure the drink has a vegetable in it because too much fruit speeds up eliminations as it also raises blood sugar. Vegetables slow down the process of eliminations and satisfies the hunger by making the body less acid more alkaline. Cuke, Ginger and peppermint will keep the body alkaline.
