Cucumber Infused Water
Cucumber infused water, plus it’s incredibly easy to make! You can use regular cucumbers or English cucumbers – just make sure they are organic if you leave the rind on.
For visual appeal, you can cut away the cucumber rind in a pattern (pictured) or you can cut away the rind entirely. Unlike lemons and other fruits, the rind of a cucumber does not contribute a bitterness to the flavor of the water, so it’s really up to you if you decide to leave the rind on or off.
Recipe for a 2.5-gallon Beverage Dispenser: 1/2 large cucumber, thinly sliced + filtered water (you can use a Brita Pitcher). Chill up to 12 hours for best flavor. There is no need to strain this water before serving. You can garnish each glass with a cucumber round on the rim. Enjoy!

I really like this one: D even though it’s a simple one.I tried your “fancier” recipes too but I like the clasic ones more.I mean one fruit/vegetable and maybe mix it with tea.I enjoyed all of your recipes(I tried almost all of them) and thank you for giving me ideas. Even if I prefer the “classic” ones I still like to try new stuff.Also,I like the idea of having a site dedicated to this.
P.s. I’ll tell you how I found your site.I was searching for how long should I keep the lemon pieces in the water and bang I found such an interesting site.

How long should I let the cucumber pieces remain in room temperature water for the infusion to take place? I would like to keep the pieces in the bottle throughout the day in my office while replenishing the water and drinking it. I trust there is no harm in it.

How can you break down a 2.5 gallon recipe for this Cucumber infused water when you only use half a cucumber for 320oz or 40 cups? I live alone and think you cannot keep this water for longer than 3 days.

Hi Pam!
I hope this helps:
1 gallon is 128 ounces, so 2.5 gallons would be 320 ounces. So, if you divide the recipe by 10, that’ll work for your 32oz cup. Though, I’m not sure how to divide 1/2 cucumber by 10. LOL
Good luck!

I really enjoy the taste, it reduces my appetite for alcohol and sugary snacks. After exhausting the water I eat the cucumber slices and its so enjoyable.

If I see foam forming on the top of the pitcher does that mean the cucumber water has gone bad

I just got an infusion bottle and I want to use cucumbers and since I did not buy organic I will peel them off I would like to know how long are peeled cucumbers last in my water I would like to keep filling it up with cold water throughout the day while I’m at work but would like to know if the cucumbers will last more than one day thank you

So cucumber water is what god makes his globalists and their puppets; soros and chester biden and demonrats and rinos and media drink . . . .
