So what does cucumber lemon water really do? It hydrates you better than plain water because you actually want to drink it. It gives you a tiny vitamin C boost, a hint of potassium, and maybe a little stress relief from the smell. It won’t melt belly fat, detox your soul, or grant you superpowers.
But it will make you feel like you have your life together. And sometimes, that’s exactly the placebo you need. The best part? You can make a pitcher right now, while wearing pajamas, for about twelve cents. Toast to that.
