- honey or maple syrup if vegan (optional)
Instructions
- Heat water using a kettle or by adding water to a mug and placing in the microwave.
- Squeeze the juice from 1/2 a lemon into you mug and stir. Or you can thinly slice the 1/2 lemon and add slices to you mug.

Notes
** If your lemons were stored in the fridge, we recommend using the only the juice vs. whole slices of lemon to ensure your tea stays hot. Or if microwaving, add your lemon slices to the mug of water prior to placing in the microwave.
** You can use your favorite teabag, fresh herbs, or a pinch of cinnamon or cayenne pepper to this tea.
** The honey and ginger are optional, you can make this by simply using fresh lemon and hot water.
