    One of my friends introduced me to this easy to make refreshing beverage.
    Cucumber, mint, and lime diffused in ice water.
    It is as simple as it sounds. Cut up a some cucumber, a few sprigs of mint, and a bit of lime. Add it to room temp water, like one quart in a two quart pitcher. Let it sit for a hour or more, then top the pitcher with ice.
    Very refreshing. Helps settle the stomach.
    You can sweeten this with a teaspoon of honey if you like, but I like it just the way it is without sweeteners.

    You can usually find a pot of that in the lobby of hotels. Good stuff.
