Lemon Water

Start your day with a glass of lemon water. Squeeze half a lemon into a glass of water for a hydrating and vitamin C-rich drink.

Tea/ Coffee

Having tea right after waking up can do more harm than good, so does coffee. High doses of sugar, caffeine, and nicotine first thing in the morning can cause acidity, stomach burning and also spike blood sugar.

Marinades

Add lemon juice to marinades for meats, fish and vegetables. It tenderises the food and adds a fresh flavour.

Lemonade

Make homemade lemonade by mixing lemon juice with water and a touch of honey or sugar. Add mint leaves for extra freshness.

Infused Water

Add lemon slices to your water bottle and other fruits like strawberries or cucumbers for a flavourful and refreshing drink.

Cooking

Incorporate lemon into your cooking. Add it to pasta dishes, grilled vegetables or seafood for a bright and tangy flavour.

Tea

Brew iced tea with a splash of lemon juice for a refreshing summer beverage.
