How to choose fresh, delicious ingredients
How to choose fresh lemons
- Choose lemons with smooth, shiny skin that are not rough or lumpy as they will have more vitamins.
- It is best to select lemons of moderate size, feeling heavy in hand as they will have more juice and be fresher.
- Lemons with bright and fresh skin, no mold, and a mild fragrance.
- Avoid choosing lemons that are dark or have yellow spots on the skin, soft and mushy lemons, or those with an unpleasant smell.
How to choose sweet, crunchy apples
- Choose apples that are dark red, evenly colored, and not mottled with green or red; the redder the apple, the sweeter it will be.
- Apples should be of moderate size, have a balanced shape, and have a slightly rough skin; those that are not too smooth or shiny are usually sweeter.
- Try gently tapping the apple with your finger; if it produces a loud and clear sound, feels hard to the touch, and has firm flesh, then it is a good apple.
- Avoid buying apples that are bruised, soft, have black spots, or have dry, withered stems.
How to prepare Lemon and Apple Detox Drink

Prepare the ingredients
Soak the apples and lemons in a diluted saltwater solution for about 5 minutes, then rinse thoroughly with water and let them drain.
Cut the lemon into thin slices about 1/4 finger width and remove the seeds inside to prevent bitterness in the drink.
Cut the apple in half, remove the stem and seeds, then slice into thick wedges about 1/2 finger width.
Wash the mint leaves thoroughly with water about 2 – 3 times and let them drain.

Make detox water
Prepare a water bottle, add the chopped lemon and apple in turn until the bottle is full, then add 300ml of purified water and close the bottle tightly.
Then place the water bottle in the cool compartment of the refrigerator for about 2 – 3 hours or longer depending on your preference to allow the lemon and apple to release their essence.
Finally, you just need to add a few mint leaves to the water bottle to enhance the aroma and make the drink more visually appealing, and then you can enjoy it.
Tip:- If using a larger capacity bottle, you only need to increase the amount of lemon, apple, and purified water accordingly.
- Depending on individual taste, you can adjust the amount of lemon to your liking!
