I know what you are thinking, detox water and a Spurtles, what do the two have in common and what is a Spurtle!  Recently, I was introduced to this amazing product which you can use to stir, scrape, spread, smash and so much more, I was instantly hooked thanks to Hearth and Home Goods!  Whether I’m baking or cooking, I find myself reaching for this Scottish kitchen tool which has taken the place of my cheap wooden spoons. So what does that have to do with detox water?  When I was making a batch of water last week the Spurtle came in handy when stirring so I thought why not share 2 of my new favorite things with you today!

 

Drinking lots of water and staying hydrated is so important and helps remove impurities from your body. It increases energy, promotes weight loss, flushes out toxins, improves skin complexion,  boosts the immune system and so much more.  Now, just add a few more ingredients to your water and you can help detox your body, it’s that simple! 

 

Recipe (This is for one 24 ounce serving)

Simply mix the following together and enjoy!

• Ice
• Water (24 ounces)
• 3 Basil leaves chopped
• 1 strawberry sliced
• 3  slices of cucumber
• 3 slices of lemon

If you make a large batch or don’t plan on drinking it all within 24 hours, I would strain and discard the solids before placing in the refrigerator.

Cucumbers – Are extremely refreshing but they have many anti-inflammatory properties in them as well.

Strawberries – High in antioxidants and vitamin C, bonus it adds a wonderful flavor.

Basil – Good for your digestive track, high in antioxidants and helps with fluid retention.

Lemon-Flushes out toxins, helps with digestion, packed with vitamin C, B, calcium, iron, magnesium, potassium, and fiber.

Now, let’s get back to the awesome Spurtle!  Hearth And Home Goods have two types; the long Spurtle is perfect for scraping the sides of jars, stirring tea or even scooping out spaghetti squash, it is super versatile.  The smaller Spurtle was perfect for flipping pancakes and hash browns and for serving some delicious lemon cake over the weekend!
