Step-by-Step Instructions for Cucumber Lemon Water
- Wash the English cucumber and lemon thoroughly under cool running water. Cut the cucumber into thin rounds of about 1/8-inch thickness and slice the lemon into similar-sized rounds.
- In a large pitcher, place the cucumber slices, lemon slices, and a handful of fresh mint leaves. Slightly scrunch the mint leaves between your fingers to release their aromatic oils.
- Fill the pitcher with ice cubes until nearly full, then pour in cold, filtered water to cover the ingredients completely.
- Cover the pitcher with a lid or plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator for 30 to 60 minutes to allow the flavors to develop.
- Pour the infused Cucumber Lemon Water into glasses filled with ice, garnishing with extra mint leaves if desired.
- Refill the pitcher with fresh filtered water as needed, replacing the cucumber and lemon after 2 days for maximum flavor.
