In addition to hydrating by drinking water during the summer, I eat lots of fruits and vegetables with high water content, and I sip broths when it is too hot to have a heavy meal. This is one of my favorites. Simple. To the point. Tasty. I use a lot of fresh corn in the summer, so I started making this broth with all the leftover cobs. After scraping the kernels off of the cobs, store them in a plastic bag in your fridge until you have at least four to make this broth. Minced fresh herbs such as basil, cilantro, and parsley enrich the flavor of this broth when sipping.
