Will Sassy Water Be A Success?

Posted by amy in News

In looking for recipes to take advantage of the 30 cucumbers in the garden (note to self: next year, less cucumbers!), I found this recipe for Sassy Water. It’s part of the Flat Belly Diet from Prevention and it looks so tasty that I think I’m going to give it a try!  If it’s good, I will also start growing spearmint! The ingredients aren’t just for great taste, they also help to soothe your GI tract, prevent bloating and keep you hydrated.

Drink the entire pitcher by the end of each day.
