Green detox water is water infused with ingredients such as cucumber, mint, lemon, or green apple. The exact recipe varies, but it is a flavoured drink—not a special cleanse or a substitute for a balanced diet.
No, green detox water does not remove toxins or cleanse your body. Your liver and kidneys handle those processes; the infused ingredients mainly add flavour and may make water more appealing to drink.
Green detox water does not directly burn fat or cause weight loss. Replacing a sugary drink with it may reduce your overall energy intake, but the drink itself is not a weight-loss treatment.
Add washed cucumber slices, lemon, and mint to a jug of water, then chill it so their flavour infuses the water. You can strain out the ingredients before serving, or leave them in for a stronger taste.
Let green detox water infuse in the refrigerator for at least a couple of hours if you want a noticeable flavour. Longer steeping can make lemon peel taste bitter, so remove the slices if the flavour becomes too strong.
Keep green detox water covered in the refrigerator and drink it within about a day for the best flavour. Discard it sooner if it smells or tastes unusual, and do not leave it sitting out at room temperature.
Yes, most people can drink green detox water daily as a flavoured beverage. It can contribute to fluid intake, but it does not provide the nutrition of whole fruits and vegetables or make plain water unnecessary.
Green detox water can count toward your fluid intake, but it does not need to replace plain water. If the recipe includes lemon or other acidic ingredients, drinking it throughout the day may bother sensitive teeth or trigger reflux.
It can cause discomfort in some people, especially if lemon triggers reflux or if they drink a large amount quickly. The infused cucumber and mint are not a guaranteed remedy for bloating; stop drinking it if it repeatedly worsens symptoms.
Yes, frozen cucumber or mint can flavour green detox water, although thawed cucumber may become soft and less crisp. Use clean ingredients and chill the drink in the refrigerator rather than leaving it out to thaw.

Green detox water is water infused with fresh green ingredients, commonly cucumber, mint or parsley, sometimes with lemon for a sharper taste. Recipes vary, and the ingredients may simply steep in the water or be lightly muddled to release more flavour. The word “detox” is part of the drink’s name, not a promise of a special health effect.
Serve it chilled as a refreshing drink in warm weather, alongside a meal, or as an alternative to plain water throughout the day. Its flavour is usually subtle and herbaceous, rather than sweet. It is very low in calories—about 4 per 100 g—and is mostly water, with only small amounts of nutrients from the infused ingredients. For a brighter flavour without adding sugar, try cucumber with mint and a squeeze of lemon; make a fresh batch when you want the aroma at its best.
Low
How many vitamins, minerals and how much fiber this food carries per calorie. A high score means a lot of nutrition for few calories.
Medium
An EatBetter score computed from fiber, protein and calorie density. A high score means staying full longer on the same calories.
Both scores are calculated per 100 g and do not change with the selected portion. The satiety score is EatBetter's own calculation, not a clinical measure.
