“Drink as much as you like — it’s extremely low-calorie, loaded with protein, and perfect for staying hydrated during your cut
👩🍳 Step-by-Step Instructions
- Prep Your Containers: Grab a couple of large, clean water jugs or gallon dispensers like the ones shown in
- Dissolve the Protein: In a separate shaker cup, thoroughly blend your scoop of clear or unflavored protein isolate with 2 cups of the filtered water until completely smooth and clump-free. Let it sit for 60 seconds until any foam settles down completely into a translucent, clear liquid.
- Release the Herbal Aromatics: Take your fresh mint leaves and give them a firm slap between your palms. This instantly bursts the delicate cellular walls of the herb, releasing the cooling menthol oils without making the leaves bitter. Drop them right into the bottom of your jugs.
- Layer the Crunch & Ice: Drop your fresh, clean cucumber rounds and optional lime slices directly into the containers, then pack the jug with ice cubes to hold the ingredients beautifully against the sides as styled in
- The Final Fill: Pour your dissolved protein water base directly into the jug, then top it off with the remaining cold filtered water.
- The Cold Infusion: Slide a reusable metal straw straight down through the top like in give it a gentle swirl, and pop the jug into the coldest section of your refrigerator for at least 1 to 2 hours. The longer it chills, the crisper and more refreshing the spa-day flavors become!
