Stay refreshed and hydrated with a glass of Lemon Flavored Water. Another infused water recipe that is a good source of Vitamin C, and aids with digestion. It also might help with weight loss! Let's take a look at how easy this refreshing water is to make and enjoy.
Did you know that you are more likely to drink water if it's flavored with citrus? We all know we're supposed to drink at least 8 glasses of water a day, but for some people that can hard.
Especially if you don't like the taste of plain water. Adding sliced lemons is one way to enhance the flavor of water and keep you hydrated at the same time.
If you don't like lemons, and don't think you'll enjoy Lemon Flavored Water, try my lime water recipe or maybe one of the fruit inspired sparkling water recipes.
Non-alcoholic drinks are the perfect drink to keep on hand for the family. They also help your family stay away from sugary fruit punch drinks or even vitamin water drinks.
What is Lemon Water?
Lemon water is simply lemon slices or lemon juice in water. It can be enjoyed either hot or cold. The amount of lemons used depends on how much lemon taste you prefer in water.
Try my lemon mint sparkling water which is full of lemons and fresh mint.
Can you put Lemon Water in Stainless Steel?
Stainless steel is a non-reactive metal, therefore, lemon water or any other citrus water is safe for a stainless steel pitcher.
