Ginger and lemon water

It’s our morning health drink, drunk on an empty stomach for months. We have become addicted. At first, to make it less aggressive I added a little honey or agave syrup, to sweeten and sweeten. But over the weeks, I didn’t wear anymore. Water, fresh ginger and lemon, lime or lime juice depending on the day, that’s it. To drink like herbal tea.

It is not a slimming drink, nor a so-called detox, but a healthy concentrate for the body. We often talk about the benefits of ginger, but it is very interesting to associate lemon with ginger.

About the ginger and lemon drink recipe

• Only sugar if you find the drink too acidic. Honey, agave syrup, brown sugar, or coconut sugar, your choice.
• Choose organic ginger, and you can avoid peeling it. Finely grate the ginger or cut it into small strips.
• Brew the ginger in the boiling water first, and add the lemon juice only after the water has cooled so as not to kill the vitamins in the lemon.
• Squeeze the lemon and add the juice or squeeze it roughly and put the lemons in your bottle. Then choose organic.
• You can also add a little turmeric or garlic.
