Ingredients:

Juice of 2 lemons (about 1/3 cup)

Equal parts lemon juice and maple syrup ( about 2/3 cups total)

Add filtered or purified water to make 3-4 cups total

2+ Dashes or pinches of cayenne to taste

Steps:

Use a glass 4-cup measuring cup or 1 quart canning jar to mix the ingredients, then refrigerate and sip or guzzle! It’s really good. Add less water for a stronger tasting drink.
