Daniel and Luci’s Tasty Summer Hydration Drink

Ready for the summer? Today, we got surprised by a hot sunny day in Santee, CA. Not that it’s strange for us to have beautiful sunny weather here in San Diego, but it’s been cold and rainy the last few weeks. So was today just a fluke or what marks the first day of our summer?

What you don’t want on a day like this though is to get dehydrated! Drinking plenty of water is definitely a good thing, especially if you’re a coffee drinker. But not everyone likes just “plain” water so here’s our recipe for a tasty summer drink that will definitely keep you hydrated.

In 1 gallon of filtered water add:

1 medium orange, cut in 1/4 inch slices
1/2 cucumber, cut in 1/4 inch slices
10 mint leaves (fresh is better but dried will do too
Add ice if you want it cold

Gently mix it all up and enjoy!

Cucumber, why?
Cucumbers help your body to retain water. Remember how we mentioned coffee drinkers? Caffeine actually does the opposite, it helps your body get rid of water. Cucumbers are also alkaline which means that it helps your body regulate it’s pH, neutralizing the acidity from other foods, especially processed foods, and gives you a better chance of warding off infection.

Orange, why?
Citrus in general help cleanse your intestines and even promote fat burning and weight loss. But perhaps what makes it so good in our drink is that it helps reduce stress, refreshing and revitalizing along the way.

Mint, why?
There are all sorts of things that mint is good for and along with the orange and cucumber, it’s actually pretty tasty too! Mint also refreshes is known to take headache away, by smelling it or massaging some of the essential oil on your temples. Imagine what it can do to your dehydration headache if you drink it!

Where do we get our ingredients? Our favorite place for these ingredients is Growers Direct. They’re a small, farmers-market-like shop on University Avenue, on the border between San Diego and La Mesa. All their produce is locally and organically grown/sourced and way cheaper than Sprouts or Whole Foods. More information can be found HERE.

Honest Healing Balm

We bought a 2-pack of Honest Healing Balm at Costco sometime last year and we have started to use it for nearly everything! It works great for minor scrapes and cuts but lately we’ve also found that it works well as for parched, dry skin and lips. Instead of buying lip balm, like we’ve done nearly every year, we’ve decided that Honest Healing Balm does the trick much better than anything we’ve used in the past. The same thing goes for moisturizing hand-lotion – we just use the Honest Healing Balm instead.

If you click on this Honest Healing Balm link, it will take you straight to their website to learn more!

Our insider trick

One thing that we’ve found out using the Honest Healing Balm which we’d like to mention here is that if it’s stored at low-ish temperatures (like under 60°F), it gets a little hard and is also harder to apply to the skin. We assume that’s because of the natural oils and beeswax. So our insider trick for making it a little easier to apply is to simply put it in our pocket for about 20-30 minutes before using it.

If you’ve tried the Honest Healing Balm yourself, please leave a comment and let us know so we can compare notes!

What we like about it

It’s made of ingredients that are not worried about putting on our skin or our children’s skin.
