Essential Oil Detox Water (Vegan)
Supplies
- Glass jars for serving
Ingredients
- 1-2 droppersful liquid stevia, plain OR flavored
- 10 drops lemon OR lime essential oil OR 5 drops of each
- 10 drops grapefruit OR orange essential oil OR 5 drops of each
- 1 tablespoon organic unfiltered apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed organic lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed organic lime juice
- Purified OR distilled water
Instructions
- Put the liquid stevia, essential oils, apple cider vinegar, lemon and lime juice into a 1-gallon glass water jar.
- Fill the jar to the top with water. I recommend using glass containers instead of plastic because they are better for the environment, essential oils can eat away plastic, and these jars are better for your health. You can find a jar like this at Whole Foods, Amazon, health food stores, or you can reuse old glass containers and jars, like I do.
Notes
This recipe makes a four-day supply of concentrate. Generally, drink no more than 2 liters of Detox Water each day.
If detoxing or working out often, you can drink 2-4 liters. Anything else will exceed the maximum oral dose of essential oils as outlined in aromatherapy safety texts.
To make one serving of Detox Water, fill a 1-liter or quart glass container halfway with purified or distilled water. Then, add one scoop or individual packet of Ultima electrolyte powder, 1 teaspoon of unfiltered organic apple cider vinegar, 1 teaspoon of freshly squeezed organic lemon juice, and 1 teaspoon of freshly squeezed organic lime juice. Then, fill the bottle the rest of the way with Essential Water Concentrate. Shake well before drinking.
