Slices of lemon, sprigs of mint and a little cucumber! Water infusion by Michelle Carigma.
This weeks feature recipe is by Michelle Carigma aka ModernFit! Michelle gives us one of her favourite water infusions and shows us that healthy can be done cheap!
Being healthy doesn't have to be expensive. As much as I love going to a Juicery because of its convenience, it gets pretty expensive! When my bank account is telling me no, but my body is telling me yes... I make my own version! I usually like to head to Whole Foods and get pressed juice after I've had an unhealthy weekend (damn you Korean BBQ) or even after a hangover. Basically, it makes me feel better!
A cost saving way to stay healthy is so simple!
My Favourite Combo:
Add lemon, mint and cucumber to your water!
