11 Overnight Detox Drinks for Cleansing and Rejuvenating

11 Overnight Detox Drinks for Cleansing and Rejuvenating

Detoxing your body regularly is an act of self-care—steal our evening ritual to detox yours

When we think of looking after ourselves and nourishing our insides, we often focus on things like exercise regimes and nutritious meals. But what if using nighttime detox drinks to cleanse and detox our bodies was the answer to feeling our very best every day?

It’s probably no surprise that we adore detox drinks before bed—after all, our evening rituals are how we de-stress at L’Beauxtique. We like to light a candle, dry brush our skin (another scientifically-backed detox tool), and sip a detox drink that works overnight to cleanse and rejuvenate.

Overnight detox drinks are simple to make—and when made with specific natural ingredients—contain vitamins and minerals that can help our bodies stimulate detoxification, cleanse our organs, and lead to a healthier lifestyle overall. 

Detox drinks can also protect us from everyday toxins and pollutants, and the natural ingredients in these drinks can help to manage these toxins before they lead to bigger health problems further down the line.

In this article, we’ll share eleven simple overnight detox drinks that can help boost your energy and keep sickness at bay. But first, let’s go over what detox water is, why it’s essential to your nighttime detox drinks, and some of the best detoxifying ingredients to use for maximum results.



Certain detox ingredients can help with better energy, well-being and a higher quality of sleep

Although there’s no shortage of speculation around the words ‘detox’ and ‘cleanse’, becoming a regular consumer of these hydrating drinks can have nothing but positive side effects for the body.

Whilst many detoxes and cleanses on the market today carry high levels of sugar and other additives, the difference with a detox water recipe is its ability to deliver nutrients in the most natural way possible.

In the most simple terms, detox water is water that has been infused with fresh fruits, herbs or vegetables. These drinks can be made with everyday ingredients that you most likely already have in your fridge or pantry at home. For this reason, detox water is the perfect option for a detox drink before bedtime.

While there are many ingredients that can be used for detox water,  here are the top six overnight detox drinks to consider:


Lemon

Lemon is a natural detoxifier and strongly aids digestion. It contains high levels of vitamin C and blends in well with almost every ingredient—a bright, citrus addition to any nighttime detox drink.


Watermelon

Watermelon is one of the most hydrating fruits available and is also a powerful antioxidant. The magnesium and potassium in each slice help to detoxify the body, along with supporting anti-aging.


Aloe vera

If you’re in need of a drink that will balance out your pH levels, look no further than the natural essence of Aloe vera. This ingredient also works hard to boost the immune system and reduce any inflammation present in the body.


Cucumber

Think of drinking water infused with cucumber as the equivalent to putting on a fresh cucumber face mask before bed. This refreshing fruit helps to fight free radical damage and combat oxidative stress.


Ginger

The perfect addition if you’re looking to calm digestion issues before bedtime, ginger detox water is great for bloating and can have you waving goodbye to those frustrating nighttime stomach woes for good.


Blueberries

Detox water with blueberries is high in flavonoids, meaning these gem-like fruits are warriors against inflammation and fantastic for anyone managing any autoimmune flare-ups in the evening.



A detox drink a day keeps the doctor away

There are many combinations of these ingredients that make for the perfect nighttime detox drink and can help you reach your wellness and health goals.

Below are five more simple yet delicious detox drinks that can be easily integrated into your nighttime routine, whether you like to dry brush like us or soak in an Epsom salt bath to detox. (We recommend our Evening Body Serum before your bath to prevent your skin from dehydrating while it detoxifies.)


WATERMELON AND ALOE VERA WATER

Ingredients:

A large jug of water (ideally an infuser pitcher if you have one)

Quarter of a watermelon

Half a cup of Aloe vera pulp / juice

Handful of ice cubes


Directions:

Slice your watermelon into small pieces, making sure to remove any seeds. Fill up a large jug of water and place in all your ingredients. Place the jug in the fridge and leave to infuse overnight. Enjoy the following evening before bed.


What we love most about this drink:

The Aloe vera will relax your body before bed and provide anti-inflammatory support to your muscles and joints, whilst the watermelon will work its way into your skin, renewing your cells and setting you up for a soft and supple face in the morning.

You will need:

A jug of water (ideally an infuser pitcher if you have one)

½ cucumber

½ lemon

Tablespoon of fresh mint leaves

What we love most about this drink:

The lemon detoxifies and purifies while the cucumber works behind the scenes to fight free radical damage and support our skin’s appearance - yes please!



BERRY-INFUSED MINT WATER

A jug of water (ideally an infuser pitcher if you have one)

Half a cup of blueberries

Half a cup of blackberries

Tablespoon of fresh mint leaves


Directions:

Place all berries and the fresh mint leaves into a colander and rinse well. Fill up a water jug and place all ingredients into the jug. Place the jug in the fridge and leave to infuse overnight. Enjoy the following evening before bed.


What we love most about this drink:

Aside from this drink being so incredibly refreshing, it’s also a skin care lover's dream! The berries carry many antioxidants that combat free radicals, leading to rejuvenated, healthy skin as a result.



APPLE CIDER VINEGAR

You will need:

1 mug of Chamomile tea

2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar

Dash of honey

Sprinkle of cinnamon


Directions:

Simply add 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar to a mug of Chamomile tea with a dash of honey and cinnamon.


What we love most about this drink:

These ingredients combined will help you to feel relaxed before bed and also set you up well for the following day ahead.


MATCHA TEA

You will need:

1 cup of hot water

1 scoop of matcha tea

Bowl, scoop and a whisk

Mug


Directions:

Simply add one scoop of matcha powder into the bowl and add one tablespoon of water to the bowl. Whisk this small amount for about 15 seconds just to start the process, then pour in the remainder of your hot water into the bowl. Whisk for around 1 - 2 minutes until tea is smooth and a froth has started to form. Pour into a mug and enjoy.


What we love most about this drink:

We all know how great hot tea is when we want to feel calm and relaxed before bed, and matcha tea not only alleviates feelings of stress and anxiety, but has also been proven to support the fat burning process.

It’s no secret that overnight detox drinks can be a great way to manage your waistline. Whether you are wanting to speed up your metabolism or kick start the fasting process, drinking certain detox drinks before bed can help to support your weight loss goals.



Looking our best on the outside starts from the inside

Drinking detox drinks before bed is a simple yet effective way to prime the body for its nightly detoxification functions. Whether it's more energy, weight loss, or better sleep that you’re in need of, making overnight detox drinks part of your daily routine can help you to cleanse out the nasties and set you up for a clean start in the new year.
