Ingredients
- 1 medium cucumber, thinly sliced

- Combine Ingredients: In a large pitcher, add the sliced cucumber, lemon slices, and fresh mint leaves.
- Add Water: Pour 8 cups of cold water over the ingredients in the pitcher.
- Infuse: Stir the mixture gently to combine. Cover the pitcher and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld. For best taste, infuse overnight.

Notes
- For a stronger flavor, muddle the mint leaves slightly before adding.
- Add ice cubes before serving for an extra cold beverage.
- You can refill the pitcher with more water once the initial infusion is finished, but the flavor will be milder.
- Use organic cucumbers and lemons if possible to avoid pesticide residues since the skin is used.
- This beverage is naturally calorie-free and suitable for all ages.
