Tag: Juices

Happy Sunday blogging family,

I was feeling a little tired as fall came into fruition this year. I don’t know why…perhaps too many pumpkin lattes and sweets. So, on the mornings that I run, I began drinking lemon cayenne water. I loved the kick of energy. It’s like sunshine in a glass!

Inspired by the sunny mornings in Capri, citrusy scent of lemons in Italy and a hint of pepper that gives it a kick, this lemon cayenne water is just what you need to curb temptations during the holiday season.

I also read that vitamin C aids in the absorption of iron. If you don’t have a juicer, all you need is a blender and a fine-mesh sieve.  Continue reading “Citrus Carrot Juice” →
