✅ Step 4: Combine all ingredients
In a large glass pitcher or jar, add the cucumber and lemon slices, grated ginger, and a handful of mint leaves.
✅ Step 5: Add water
Pour 6–8 cups (1.5–2 liters) of fresh cold water over the ingredients.
✅ Step 6 (Optional): Add apple cider vinegar
Add 1 tablespoon of raw, unfiltered ACV if you like its tangy flavor and additional benefits.
✅ Step 7: Let it infuse overnight
Place the drink in the fridge and let it infuse for at least 8 hours, preferably overnight. This allows the ingredients to release their active compounds into the water.
How to Drink It
Drink one glass (250 ml) first thing in the morning on an empty stomach.
Drink another glass 30 minutes before each meal.
Finish the full amount throughout the day.
Repeat for 3 consecutive days.
Why It Might Work
This drink may support short-term weight loss by:
Reducing water retention (cucumber & lemon)
Increasing thermogenesis (ginger)
Supporting digestion and bowel movements (mint)
Detoxifying the liver (lemon & ACV)
However, remember that these effects are temporary and largely due to water loss. For lasting fat loss, pair this drink with a calorie-controlled diet and regular exercise.
⚠️ Precautions
Not suitable for pregnant or breastfeeding women without medical approval.
Avoid if you have ulcers or acid reflux (ginger and lemon may aggravate symptoms).
Do not replace meals with this drink — it’s a supplement, not a substitute.
Final Thoughts
While this powerful detox drink can make you feel lighter and more energetic in just a few days, its real value lies in its ability to jump-start a healthier lifestyle. Use it as a natural booster — not a miracle cure. True fat loss comes from sustainable habits.
