High uric acid can lead to gout, joint pain, and kidney issues. These simple homemade drinks can support natural uric acid balance — they’re anti-inflammatory, hydrating, and easy to make!
1. 🍋 Lemon Water
Why it works:
Lemon is rich in vitamin C and citric acid, which helps neutralize uric acid and encourages its elimination through urine.
How to make:
- Squeeze half a lemon into 1 glass of warm water.
- Drink on an empty stomach every morning.
2. 🌿 Coriander Seed Water
Why it works:
Coriander seeds have uric acid-lowering and diuretic effects.
How to make:
- Boil 1 tsp coriander seeds in 2 cups water for 5–7 minutes.
- Strain and drink warm or at room temperature once daily.
3. 🍃 Tulsi (Holy Basil) Tea
Why it works:
Tulsi supports kidney health and has mild detoxifying effects that help flush uric acid.
How to make:
- Boil 5–6 fresh tulsi leaves in 1.5 cups of water for 5 minutes.
- Strain and sip warm, once a day.
4. 🥒 Cucumber-Mint Detox Water
Why it works:
Cucumber is alkaline and hydrating, helping dilute and flush out uric acid. Mint adds a soothing, anti-inflammatory boost.
How to make:
- Add sliced cucumber + mint leaves to 1 liter of water.
- Let it infuse for 2–4 hours in the fridge.
- Sip throughout the day.
5. 🍒 Fresh Cherry Juice (Unsweetened)
Why it works:
Cherries are rich in antioxidants and anthocyanins that reduce inflammation and uric acid levels.
How to make:
- Blend 1 cup fresh or frozen cherries (no sugar) with 1/2 cup water.
- Strain if needed and drink 2–3 times per week.
6. 🌾 Barley Water

Barley has diuretic and liver-supportive properties. It helps flush uric acid while also being good for cholesterol and digestion.
