Cool Down with 3 Hydrating Summer Detox Juices

Summer beverages are all about hydration and refreshment. Cucumbers, watermelon, mint and other summer faves are made to keep us cool as, well, a cucumber, and to keep our bodies nice and hydrated so we don’t overheat or melt down.

3 Summer Detox Juice Recipes

These 3 detox juices are major multi-taskers, though: they do a great job of cooling you down when heat and humidity strike (think of them as air-conditioning for your insides!), and are full of diuretic detox ingredients like watercress, parsley and celery that battle bloating and inflammation.

Watermelon Toxin Flush

There’s a reason watermelon has its name! If you’re one of those people (present company included) who hacks off a piece to eat over the sink immediately after buying one, you’ll love this juice. The combination of watermelon and mint is absolutely divine, and the lemon helps regulate your pH.
