Tired with pure water? Try add some cucumbers!

Wash a medium cucumber thoroughly and peel if you want a milder flavor or leave stripes for a pretty look. Slice it in half lengthwise, then cut into ¼ to ½ inch pieces. If you’re not a fan of seeds, scoop them out first. Drop the slices into a pitcher, pour in about two quarts of cold water, and add ice on top to keep the cucumber submerged for a stronger taste. Let it sit for at least an hour (overnight is even better) in the fridge. For a twist, toss in mint, citrus, or berries. Refill the pitcher as needed, but swap out the cucumbers after two days. It’s a super simple way to make drinking water way more appealing, especially if you’re bored with plain water. #hydrationhacks #cucumberwater #refreshingdrinks #Food #Cooking
