AmaZing™ & Refreshing with Zing™ | Fresh Mint Strawberry Lemonade Recipe Friday 04 September, 2015

What perks you up? Many people need coffee first thing in the morning. I’ve told you all before, I am not the biggest coffee drinker (ice lattes are more of my thing). I guess I am not the “standard” American who just has to have that cup of joe in the am. I am not sure if you all know but I am pretty into learning new and holistic ways to eat, drink and heal myself better just for better health benefits. What surprisingly perks me up are lemons! zing-stevia-sweetner-4

Yes lemons are like my go-to fruit now! I bought this citrus pressing machine and I literally have been juicing my own lemons every day. There are so many health benefits to lemons such as fights cancer cells, improves one’s digestive system, lowers high blood pressure, balance pH levels, increases metabolism and promotes weight loss and more! The sour and tartness of the fruit really perks me up and I have been figuring out many ways to ingest lemons.
