Easy to make summer cleansing drinks

Summertime is a super fun time, so, why should your water be blah, right?!  With these 5 drinks, your summer will never be boring!

The summer heat and especially the humidity are brutal in Florida.  Our heat is so harsh that just walking outside can cause dehydration. 

Hydration is so important for us, so, we go through water like…

…..water!

Our water consumption is through the roof from May to August.  So, every time there is a sale on water, we make a beeline for the store!

We are a funny sight to see! If you could see us when we find out about a water sale, we are like those cartoon characters whose feet are a blur when they run.

You need these summer cleansing drinks!

5 cleansing drinks

When the heat is beating down, any one of these drinks is a tasty hydrating choice. Which one is your favorite?

Be sure to use organic fruits and veggies in this recipe so that you get the maximum cleansing effects.

Kiwi lime rosemary water

Summer Cleansing Water using kiwi and lime with Rosemary

This one is my favorite cleansing water drink.  Kiwi and lime together make for the best combination.  I like using Pure Life water in this recipe because their water is filtered through a 12-step quality process and they even blend unique minerals in it.

Rosemary has anti-inflammatory properties, so, they are perfect for battling symptoms of dehydration. Also, it has been used for cleansing the body since the 13th century Spaniards.

In a glass, add 3 ice cubes, 1 sprig of Rosemary, 1 kiwi fruit thinly sliced and 1 lime, thinly sliced.  Add 1 cup of water and refrigerate for about an hour before drinking it.

Strawberry Apple Water

Strawberries, apple, and Rosemary with water! Tell me that it isn’t a winning combination?!  Strawberry adds a sweetness and apples add a tartness.  That’s what I call a sweet and tangy summer.

Cucumber lime rosemary water

Whenever I visit a spa, I have to try their cucumber water! It is so refreshing and just one sip makes all the stress and tension dissipate.

I think adding lime and rosemary to cucumber water kicks it up and makes it even more refreshing!

In a glass, add 3 cubes of ice, 1 sprig of Rosemary, 1 lime (thinly sliced), 1/4 of a cucumber (thinly sliced), and 1 cup of water. Refrigerate for about an hour before drinking it.

Grapefruit apple water

Grapefruit and green apple summer cleansing water

I just realized that I have never made a grapefruit recipe on this blog! That needs to change immediately! I am already thinking of dessert ideas using grapefruit, so, stay tuned!

Grapefruit in water is very good for flushing your (and my) digestive tract.  The water is so deliciously tangy and aromatic because of the apples and Rosemary.

In a glass, add 3 ice cubes, 1 sprig of Rosemary, 2 slices of grapefruit, and 1 slice of an apple.  Add 1 cup of Nestle Pure Life water and refrigerate for about an hour before drinking it.

Watermelon guava water

Guava and Watermelon infused summer cleansing drink

Watermelon and guava were always around our home when growing up.  I used to love eating guava out in the yard in the summer! So, adding them to this summer cleansing drinks recipe brings back so many happy memories for me.

In a glass, add 3 cubes of ice, 1/4 cup of watermelon (cubed), and 1 guava thinly sliced.  Add 1 cup of water and refrigerate for about an hour before drinking it.

What is your favorite way to stay hydrated during hot summer days?

    1. Catherine, its more constructive if you leave a more detailed reason of why you think bottled water is bad for the environment. Nestle Pure Life takes great pains to make sure it goes through the right procedures when bottling the water – https://www.nestlepurelife.com/water-purification-process. Also, I am a huge advocate of recycling plastic bottles and I know many of my readers are environmentally conscious. Don’t you think your time would be better spent trying to help the environment instead of being a bully comment troll on a small blog? By leaving your trolly comment here, you have made no difference whatsoever!!! I hope, for the sake of Celtic Women International, you will be a better spokesperson.

  1. I am so excited to try the watermelon guava water! Thanks for the ideas I always need to drink more water!
