Instructions
- Slice the Lemon and Cucumber: Start by slicing the lemon and cucumber into thin slices. This allows the flavors to infuse better into the water.
- Add Mint Leaves: Tear a few fresh mint leaves to release their oils and add them to the water. Mint adds a refreshing flavor and provides digestive benefits.
