2. Weight-Loss Drinks at Home Recipes
1. Fruit-Infused Water
When it comes to weight-loss drinks at home recipes, nothing tops good
old-fashioned water. It may be even more beneficial when it’s cold, though
the science isn’t conclusive.
That said, to ensure you’re getting plenty of water to drink throughout
each day, you can make it even more appealing and enjoyable by adding
your favorite fruits.
Slice up some lemons, limes, or oranges. Add a handful of your favorite
berries, sliced watermelon, or pineapple. Or try something a little more
“exotic” like sliced kiwi and mint, basil and orange, lemon and cucumber,
or ginger and lime. For a little extra “detox,” add cucumber, lemon, mint
leaves, and a ginger slice or two; or try adding grapefruit and cucumber.
Just use any other fruit, herbs, or combinations you enjoy or that are in
season!
We’ve all heard the saying, “You are what you eat,” but what about what
you drink? If you drink a lot of your calories—in the form of sugar-loaded
sodas, juices, and coffee drinks—you are likely consuming way more calories
than you can burn. A straightforward way to cut calories and thus support
your weight-loss efforts is to make simple weight loss drinks at home
recipes.
Many of these drink options don’t just support weight loss due to the
decrease in calories. Some can provide metabolism-boosting nutrients to
help the body burn off fat.
Here are some ideas for what to drink in the morning and throughout the
day to lose weight.

3. 2. Apple Cider Vinegar
Use ripe fruit
If adding herbs, bruise them first to release the flavor by either
crushing them in your hand or using a mortar and pestle (you can
also choose to mash up the fruits a bit to release more of their
flavor)
Give it time to infuse—overnight if possible
If you want a stronger flavor, just add more fruits and herbs.
You can add more water throughout the day as you drink it down.
Just understand that the flavor will dilute with every refill.
To make your weight-loss at home recipe, add your choice of fruit to a
pitcher of water, set it in the fridge, and use that to fill up your water
bottle throughout the day.
To ensure your fruit-infused water is even more flavorful:

4. 3. Turmeric Tea
Apple cider vinegar (ACV) likely isn’t the miracle drink many have
proclaimed, but it does appear to have health benefits. This includes
helping kill harmful bacteria, lowering blood sugar levels, promoting
weight loss, boosting skin health, and even supporting heart health. 1
Research has, in fact, verified that consuming ACV can help reduce body
weight, body fat mass, and triglyceride levels in obese individuals when
compared to a placebo by up to 8 pounds over a 12-week period. 2, 3
You don’t need to sip a lot either. Just add one to two tablespoons of
apple cider vinegar to a half glass (or one full cup) of water, and drink it
down before you eat. For a change of pace, you can also toss in a couple
of tablespoons of berries, the juice from a lemon, or a tablespoon of honey
(just remember that honey will increase the calorie load by 64).
To help protect your tooth enamel from potential damage (as ACV is very
acidic), drink it down with a reusable straw, and don’t consume more than
two tablespoons per day.

5. Turmeric is best known as the component in curry that gives it that bright
yellow-orange color and its distinct flavor. Yet this herb is also a powerful
antioxidant with anti-inflammatory properties. Plus, it may help folks lose
weight by supporting the digestive system, regulating blood sugar levels,
and helping prevent insulin resistance. Curcumin, found within turmeric,
has also been shown to help boost fat loss.
Depending on your taste preferences, you can make turmeric tea in a
variety of ways. Start with a saucepan filled with water. Then add a dash
of turmeric and bring the water to a boil. Turn off the heat, and let it cool
to room temperature. If you choose, you can also add a dash of ginger,
fresh mint leaves, or some cinnamon powder or a chunk of a cinnamon
stick to the water before it comes to a boil. Again, you can also stir in a
drop of honey if you prefer a sweeter tea.
What to Drink in the Morning to Lose
Weight?
You can kick off your morning for weight loss too. Start with a big glass of
water as soon as you roll out of bed to rehydrate. And then continue to
energize your morning and your fat burning with any of the options
below:
4. Coffee

6. While many people think they should cut back on coffee, this beverage
has a wide range of health benefits. You will, however, want to cut out the
high-calorie gourmet coffee beverages (i.e., sugar bombs) and enjoy your
coffee black or with calorie-free flavors (e.g., stevia drops).
Straight up coffee has been shown to boost weight and body fat loss as
well as decreasing the risk of insulin resistance and thus type 2 diabetes.
One study found that four cups of caffeinated coffee per day over six
months led to a drop of nearly four percent in overall body fat. 4
If you are following a low-carb or keto lifestyle, enjoying a cup of coffee
with MTC oil stirred in may help speed metabolism, increase energy levels,
and raise HDL cholesterol levels. 5 You do, however, need to consider the
extra calories you’re adding to your morning beverage.

7. Green tea is beneficial throughout the day, but it can provide a soothing
wake up, especially when combined with lemon and mint, to kickstart your
day.
What’s more, green tea is loaded with antioxidants and has also been
found to be very supportive for encouraging weight loss as well as overall
health. One well-known benefit is that it can boost metabolism due to its
catechin and caffeine content. 6
5. Green Tea with Lemon and Mint
It may even help your skin look more glowing 7 —and who can’t use a bit
more glow in the morning?
Simply brew per instructions with some crushed mint leaves. And add a
slice of lemon to serve. Then enjoy at least two to three cups per day to
take advantage of green tea’s positive effects on weight loss and health as
well as its unique flavor.

8. One weight-loss drink at home recipe you may not have heard of before is
Jerra water. Jerra, aka cumin seeds, may support weight loss by improving
your metabolic rate. According to some, this drink may also help reduce
hunger and boost fat burning.
To make, just add one tablespoon of organic cumin seeds to a glass of
water with some lime juice. Place it in the fridge overnight. In the morning,
you can strain out the seeds (or keep a few to chew on), and drink it down.
One 2016 study found that cumin seeds with lime juice consumed over
eight weeks had beneficial results on weight, body mass index, and
triglycerides. 8

Weight-Loss Drinks at Home Recipes
Conclusion
Replacing high-calorie, high-sugar drinks with any of the weight-loss drink
recipes listed above can not only help you cut calories, but it could also
kickstart your metabolism throughout the day. This can help your body
better burn fat to help you shed excess weight.
These drinks may be even more beneficial when consumed before meals,
as they can help fill up the tummy, so you’ll need to consume less food to
feel full and satiated.
Of course, any successful weight-loss plan takes an integrated approach
of decreasing calories, exercising regularly, getting plenty of quality sleep,
and supporting your metabolic hormones.
