Equipment

  • Large glass pitcher (64-ounce capacity)
  • Fine mesh strainer
  • Ice cube trays
  • Glass measuring cup (2-cup Pyrex)
  • Long spoon for stirring

Ingredients
  

  • 16 oz filtered ice water
  • 1 large ice cube or 4-5 standard ice cubes
  • ¼ teaspoon pink Himalayan sea salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon liquid magnesium unflavored
  • 3 drops liquid stevia vanilla or plain
  • 1 fresh lemon slice optional

Instructions
 

  • Fill your glass with ice cubes, using large cubes for slower melting and optimal temperature maintenance.
  • Pour filtered ice water slowly over ice to avoid splashing. Water temperature should be 32-35°F for maximum thermogenic effect.
  • Measure pink Himalayan salt carefully - ¼ teaspoon provides mineral support without overpowering taste.
  • Add liquid magnesium drops for metabolic enzyme support.
  • Include stevia drops starting with 2 drops, adjusting to taste preference.
  • Stir quickly for exactly 6 seconds to distribute minerals evenly and enhance absorption.
  • Add fresh lemon slice if desired for additional vitamin C and flavor.
  • Drink immediately for maximum benefits - consume within 5 minutes of preparation.

Notes

  • Storage: Mineral blends can be pre-mixed and stored in small containers for up to 3 months
  • Timing: Best consumed 20 minutes before meals for optimal satiety benefits
  • Modifications: Start with half the salt amount for sensitive stomachs and build tolerance gradually
  • Seasonal Variations: Add fresh mint in summer, cinnamon in fall, ginger in winter, cucumber in spring
  • Client Adaptations: Pregnant women should omit magnesium and consult healthcare providers; those with high blood pressure need medical clearance before adding mineral salts
