A detox water as a miracle cure? That sounds perfect, because mulled wine and marzipan, Christmas parties, and family celebrations were a challenge for the figure and for health. Our suggestion to get back in shape: a delicious drink you can enjoy hot or cold that detoxifies and helps you lose weight. Thanks to cinnamon, it even has a spicy note.
Detox water made with apple, cinnamon, and lemon
It’s as simple as this: While you heat a liter of water in the kettle, cut a green apple into small pieces and put them in a large pitcher. Add a stick of cinnamon. Make sure it is high-quality Ceylon cinnamon. Pour the water into the pitcher. It should not boil, but be at drinking temperature. Cover it and set it aside for ten minutes before placing the drink in the refrigerator. Two hours later, add the juice of a squeezed lemon. If the water is too hot, the benefits of the lemon will be lost.
Now you can enjoy the water, either cold or carefully warmed up again. If you make the drink with cold water, it should steep longer, for example overnight.
If you drink it regularly in the morning on an empty stomach and several times a day, your liver and digestive organs will be happy!
