The name says it all. Sometimes my body, skin and mind just want an extra dose of love. So this is where this drink comes in. It's perfect for an afternoon pick me up or a pre-dinner date drink. Giving you lots of good feels with the ginger, lemon and cayenne. 

When I was pregnant, the only thing that would cure those "hangover feel" days was ginger. And I would carry around packets of lemon ginger tea just to sniff throughout the day. Ginger is such a powerful root, that I think we all need to use a little more in our lives. And the added turmeric in this drink gives it an extra boost. The health benefits of turmeric are insane, just look it up!

Ingredients: 
  • 1 cup of water
  • 1/2 teaspoon of ginger (I just grated mine)
  • 1/2 teaspoon of turmeric
  • 1/4 teaspoon of cayenne
  • 2 teaspoon of honey
  • 1/2 teaspoon of molasses
  • 2 lemons
  • Lemon Ginger Kombucha (or sparkling water)

Add the water, ginger, turmeric, cayenne, honey, molasses and 1 juiced lemon to a cup. I used a mason jar, because you are going to want to shake it up. Once it is shaken, put into the fridge until it is chilled. Once it's chilled slice some lemons, add ice and top with kombucha.
