Recipe: Basil Detox Drink
Yield: 3-4 glasses
Ingredients:
- 2 Lemons
- 2 Apples
- handful basil leaves
Method:
- Squeeze the lemons to lemon juice.
- Wash and cube the apples
- Wash the basil leaves
- Put everything in a blender, add water (I added 2-3 cups) and blend until smooth. Choose speed depending on your blender, if blended at low speed it is the best to get smoother texture.
- If you think it's too thick, add more water and blend again.
