Happy June!
I cannot believe it's June already! Being a teacher, June is pretty happy month - the end is near my friends! It's an especially happy June for us this year since we will be moving to the Sunshine State at the end of this month!
It's safe to say I'm feeling pretty upbeat this morning and when I'm feeling good, I tend to eat, drink and be healthier. (Gotta keep the good times rolling, right?) So I made some "detox" water this morning - a term I use loosely, because really if you think about it, all healthy foods detox your body in one way or another. In any case, this water is good for you.
Here are the ingredients:
- cold water
-1 organic lemon
-1/2 tsp. ground ginger (or fresh if you have it!)
Directions:
Squeeze the juice of a lemon into a jar or large glass. Then go ahead and throw the lemons in there. Put in the ginger. Fill the jar/glass with cold (filtered) water. Put the lid on and shake to incorporate.
What's so great about this water? Well I like the way it tastes, but of course the water is hydrating (more so than let's say, having just coffee in the morning...), and I'm not a huge fan of drinking plain water. It just seems so boring.
And what about the ginger? You can read all about how awesome ginger is here.
And the lemon? Again, they taste good, but lemons are also really good for you, and you can read all about them here.
