Ingredients
Materials
- 1 jar (1L)
Preparation
Carefully wash the cucumber and lime under running water and cut them into slices.
Peel the ginger (you can use a teaspoon, it works very well!) and cut it into thin strips.
Put everything in the jar and add the water. Then add the mint leaves, mix and let the flavored water sit in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours (ideally, leave it overnight so that the water soaks up the aromas sufficiently).
And There you go ! Your water flavored with cucumber, mint, lime and ginger is ready!
