Notes
Ingredient Tip: Lemon peel is loaded with calcium, potassium, and vitamin C. You can juice the entire lemon, with the peel, to benefit from this additional nutrition. Note that lemon peel has a slightly bitter flavor profile.
Substitution Tip: This elixir is great with any citrus; try oranges, grapefruits, or even limes.
Serving Tip: Freeze the juice into ice cubes to give chilled juice extra nutrition, or to add flavor and nutrition to your drinking water.
