4 servings
- 4 cups water
- 1 cup fresh mint leaves, loosely packed
- 1 tsp fresh ginger, peeled and thinly sliced
Ingredient noteLow residue diets limit whole fruits, roots, and botanicals that add fiber. The fresh ginger here is infused and then strained out, leaving virtually no residue, so it is likely low residue. If you prefer to always avoid fresh ginger, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
- 2 tbsp honey
- 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
Ingredient noteFruit juice contains far less fiber than whole fruit, so the lemon juice used here leaves little residue. If you prefer to always avoid lemon juice, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
For serving
- 4 cups ice
- fresh mint sprigs (optional)
- lemon slices (optional)
Can be omittedlemon
