Whether you are replacing alcohol or looking for a mixer that isn’t from a bottle, this minty drink does the job!
Hydrating, cooling, and seriously refreshing, it has the flavor-potential to become your favorite summer tonic.
The aloe is optional, but amazing for stomach-soothing, and combined with the cucumber, becomes a gentle but effective remedy for slow-moving bowels.
Use the juicer or the blender, they both work equally well.
Cheers to your new happy-hour drink!
