If you are feeling weighed down and sluggish, it may be time for my
secret detox drink, which can help cleanse your body and make you
feel rejuvenated. For many years, I’ve added detox drinks to my health
regime because as toxins leave my body, I feel clear-headed and
energized. Plus, recipes like this one don’t require a blender or juicer,
so they are simple and easily accessible.

This is a simple beverage recipe that takes only minutes to prepare

and includes key ingredients for natural detoxification, including lemon
juice, apple cider vinegar, ginger, cinnamon and cayenne pepper. It’s
both refreshing and energizing, so give it a try today for the little boost
we all need from time to time.

Why Drink the Secret Detox Drink?

Unfortunately, it’s nearly impossible to avoid the everyday chemicals

that threaten your health, especially when they’re hidden in our
clothing, furniture, soaps and shampoos. On top of that, we are
constantly exposed to environmental pollutants, and dangerous
chemicals in our foods like heavy metals, pesticides and
preservatives.

In order to avoid toxic overload that will leave you feeling fatigued,
moody, bloated and achey, it’s a great idea to use detox drinks to help
cleanse and purify your body.
My secret detox drink contains some of the best ingredients for
detoxification. Apple cider vinegar has shown to improve
your metabolism and digestive function, while working to cleanse your
liver and lymphatic system.

Lemon juice has an alkaline effect on your body and helps to regulate
your pH levels. Drinking lemon water, or adding it to your drinks and
juices, can help to boost your energy levels, detoxify your body, keep
skin glowing (thanks to vitamin C) and improve immune function.

Cinnamon, cayenne pepper and ginger contain therapeutic

compounds that help to reduce inflammation, aid digestion and boost
your metabolism, which is a helpful step toward weight loss. That’s
why drinking ginger tea, for example, is so popular. It contains
valuable compounds that boost your health and promote
detoxification.

An optional ingredient for your detox drink is raw honey. I like to

add raw honey to many of my health drinks and detox smoothie
recipes because it’s a nutrient-dense natural sweetener. It adds a little
sweetness to this drink while nourishing the body with antioxidants.

How to Make the Secret Detox Drink

The first step in making my secret detox drink is to warm 12 to 16

ounces of water.

Now all you have to do is add your ingredients. Start by adding 2

tablespoons of apple cider vinegar to your warm water.

Then stir in ½ to 1 teaspoon of ground ginger, ¼ teaspoon of

cinnamon and a dash of cayenne pepper.
The last two ingredients are 2 tablespoons of lemon juice and 1
teaspoon of raw, local honey, which is optional, but will add a little
sweetness to your drink.

Stir it all together, and your detox drink is ready to enjoy. I like to have
it when it’s still warm, but you can drink it at any temperature.
For more intense detoxification, I recommend drinking this detox drink
three times daily about 20 minutes before meals for two weeks to flush
out toxins. If you are looking for a quick and easy way to cleanse your
body and boost your energy, have this drink once a day before
breakfast or lunch.
