Squeezing a half to whole lemon in room to warm temp water is an easy way to start your day off on a healthy foot. The more of these positive routines that you add to your day, the least likely you are to reach for and crave the things that are harming you. So buy a bag of organic lemons and before you reach for the coffee or even the OJ, let’s get in a tall glass of lemon water and give your body the tools that it needs to keep you healthy for years to come.

Instructions
Squeeze the lemon and add to a glass.
Finely grate the ginger on a chopping board, then squeeze the ginger pieces in your hand, letting the juice from the ginger drip through your hands into the glass.
Fill up the glass with room temperature/warm water (about 8 to 12 fl oz.) and enjoy.
Notes
A couple of notes: Do not add the peel to the water, lemons are rarely washed properly and often travel really far to make it to our glasses. Room temperature water is best, it is faster and easier to hydrate your body this way.
