Detox 'Spa' Water

December 26, 2016 Amanda Plott

I've got to be honest, I feel rather toxic after the last month of constant illness and being on and off an array of medications and antibiotics. My body needs a little bit of rest and recuperation, so I'm going to give it all the help that I can get!

I should start off by saying that I am not a fan of cucumbers. I love pickles, and hate hate hate cucumbers. The taste, smell, texture... everything. But, like I said... I'm determined to give my aching body some much needed love.

I was rather surprised and delighted to find that after the lemon and mint, I didn't really taste the cucumber much... if at all!...

This past weekend my mom wanted a very specific drink from a very specific place for part of her breakfast, but come to find out... they don't even make it anymore. Gasp! Shows just about how often my family visits take-out or fast food places anymore. I'm not complaining.

Funny enough, I already had a similar slurp on the menu for the week with a few needed upgrades. In fact, my mom got in trouble for using up some of the orange juice that I had specifically went out and purchased for this exact recipe! She's just lucky that I had enough to do what I wanted and needed...

Apple Cinnamon Detox Water

August 17, 2015 Amanda Plott

So, I've been working out for about two weeks now, about three days a week. I gotta say, I've been feeling pretty good already! I'm all for getting lean this year. The place that I go for my classes offers ice water and also fruit or vegetable infused water. The water recipe changes daily. So far, I've noticed a lemon water, cucumber lemon mint water, lemon cantaloupe water, and a fresh berry water. They've all been delicious and perfect to drink before, during, and after a good workout.

Needless to say, the notion of the infused water got my wheels spinning once again on my healthy detox waters. I've made a few of these waters in the past, all of which I've loved. I'm an avid water drinker, outside of my morning cup of joe I'm a water all day sort of girl and I always have been!

Detox Rainbow Salad

I'm busy getting my body back to health this week after over a month of being sick with one thing after the other. If there's anything that can help give the much needed health boost to my system, it's this salad.

There's so many good things in this salad that I can hardly stand it!...

Perfect Guiltless Detox Lemonade

How can I call this a 'Detox Lemonade'?

Well, I've been toying a lot with the whole detox water phenomena that has struck the Food & Drink pages of Pinterest lately. The basic gist of it is that you soak fresh fruits and herbs in water overnight and wake up to a lightly flavored water to sip on during the following day...
