Notes
- Cucumber: When buying fresh cucumbers, look for the ones with dark green, firm, and thin skin. Avoid cucumbers with soft spots or blemishes.
- Lemon: You can substitute it with lime juice.
- Honey: Honey works as a natural sweetener and is full antioxidants. You can use any other type of sweetener you like.
- You can also add beetroot, carrot, and apple to this juice. Both are sweet and can help reduce the amount of honey or skip it altogether.
