When we discuss lemons we can for the most part get the essence of them as well! We feel the harshness of them on our tongue. Consider when you eat a lemon. Your lips pucker up, you make that entertaining shaking development with your mouth and your eyes may water.

Lemons are filled with vitamin C and fresh lemon juice can easily give you your daily necessary quota of Vitamin C.  Lemons are also filled with potassium, magnesium and copper and excellent electrolytes.

Lemons are sour.  But they are also so beneficial for our health and there is a good way, and a tasty and delicious way, to enjoy lemons. 

The thing about a lemon is that you want to enjoy the health benefit of the WHOLE lemon. This includes the peel.  So if you are ordering hot water with lemon slices in a restaurant it is not going to be nearly as beneficial as the following recipe.
