How to Make Lime Water at Home:

Made with just a few simple ingredients, this zesty drink is sure to please.

Start by adding freshly squeezed lemon and lime juice to a glass of cold water. I like to use prepared coconut water for added sweetness. Most coconut water is sweetened, so if you like less sugar you can always substitute with plain sparkling or seltzer water.

If you like, you can add a little more sweetness with a teaspoon of honey or sugar. Stir everything together and enjoy!

You can adjust these ingredients to suit your tastes even use some of your own fresh herbs for added flavor.
