Detox Lemonade

This recipe is courtesy of my friend and fellow Nutritional Therapist, Leslie Bumpas of Redeeming Wellness. She served it to me when I stayed at her house and I was like - I NEED THAT RECIPE! She and her husband drink a small glass of it regularly in the mornings to give their livers a healthy jumpstart. If you want to learn more from Leslie, check out her website here or our podcast episode, Brain Juice for Women, here.

INGREDIENTS

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Using a VitaMix or Nutri-Bullet type of blender, add H20, quartered lemon, and EVOO.

  2. Blend on high until completely emulsified.

  3. Pour through strainer into a glass or steel pitcher.

  4. Dispose of the pulp.

  5. Now add the ACV and the stevia to taste. It should be tart, not overly sweet.
