3. Watermelon, Mint, and Cucumber
Fill your glass with wedges (including the rind), but fill with cubes and muddle the melon flesh. Then add one thinly sliced whole cucumber to a 2 L glass jar with filtered water. Add mint for extra freshness. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours and store in the refrigerator.
4. Citrus Blueberry
Slice two organic oranges and into thin slices (leave the rind on for better flavour). Add sliced oranges and 1 cup of blueberries to a 2 L glass jar. Add filtered water to fill the jar and stir gently. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours and store in the refrigerator.
The fibre, potassium, folate, vitamin C, vitamin B6, and phytonutrient content in blueberries support heart health. As for citruses, they’re a good source of vitamin C.
