Lemon Water


I've started drinking warm lemon water every morning, before breakfast. Lemon is a natural energizer; it hydrates and oxygenates the body so it feels revitalized and refreshed.
Drinking lemon water has some pretty amazing health benefits:
- Boosts your immune system
- Kick-starts metabolism
- Balances pH
- Excellent source of potassium
- Aids digestion
- Fights off viral infections,.
- Cleanses the system.

And, it's super easy to make:
- Cut a lemon in half. Always use fresh lemons if you can, and avoid the bottled lemon juice.
- Squeeze the juice of one half into a glass or mug, you can add a slice too if you want, it will intensify the flavour and look really pretty. Save the other half for tomorrow morning.
- Half fill your mug or glass with boiling water and top up with cold water.
- Drink.

Aside from being really good for you, flavouring your water is a great way to make hydration better tasting.
Here's some more ideas for you:
