Ingredients
| 2 l | water | |
| 1 | lemon | |
| 1 | medium cucumber | |
| 2 tbsp | 30 ml | grated ginger |
| 10 | mint leaves |
Instructions
- Prepare a mint decoction: put 10 mint leaves to boil in a cup of water. Once it boils, leave it for 5 minutes.
- Squeeze the lemon juice. After squeezing it, slice 3 lemon peels to add to the lemonade later.
- Peel the cucumber and blend/grind it. Then add it to the lemon juice and the mint decoction.
- Take 1 1/2 liters of spring water and pour it into a jug with the mint decoction, the lemon juice and the cucumber juice. Mix everything and add 2 teaspoons of grated ginger, the sliced 3 lemon peels and, if you wish, a few more mint leaves.
Alternative preparation: Mix the ingredients (8 cups water, 1 tbsp grated ginger root, 1 peeled and sliced cucumber, lemon pieces, 12 mint leaves) in a glass bottle. Leave the mixture overnight so the ingredients can fully combine and use it the next day. Whenever you are thirsty, simply drink from this beverage.
