Refreshing infused water with the healing properties of ginger!

Ginger. When we think of this aromatic and spicy rhizome, Asian cuisine comes to mind immediately. Used in many Asian dishes, it imparts fantastic flavor. Ginger has been used for thousands of years and is indigenous to China. It has long been used in herbal medicine for its anti-inflammatory effects, its relief of nausea and gastrointestinal disturbance, and its immune-boosting potential. It is also being studied as a means of preventing colorectal and ovarian cancer.

Water is the healthiest thirst quencher on a hot summer day, and we at Skinny Ms. are offering our favorite flavored water recipes to entice you to drink more. Healthy ingredients infused in the water give subtle flavor and aroma. Ginger, lime and mint make an outstanding drink!

    1. Cheryl, We will change the wording here. The word "untreated" is confusing. If organic is available for a reasonable price, get that, if not try to choose limes with peels that look less waxy and that will be fine. Enjoy!

  1. I’m glad I scrolled down because I didn’t understand “untreated” as it was applied to lime in the recipe. SInce the reply above was dated Sept 2014 and that it would be changed, and it’s now Jan 2018 and it is still in the recipe, it looks like someone didn’t get the message to update the recipe. ?
