Whether you’re looking to jumpstart your metabolism each day or you need a great drink for weight loss, these 3 drinks are excellent options. Take a look at 3 easy, healthy concoctions you can mix up any time!
Apple Pie Elixir
This drink (courtesy of Mind Body Green) first thing in the morning will act as a cleanser for your body, kick start your digestion for the day, and aid in weight loss by boosting your metabolism. The “secret ingredient” here is of course the magical apple cider vinegar.
Here’s what you mix together:
-2 tbsp raw, unfiltered apple cider vinegar
-dash of each: cinnamon, nutmeg and ginger powder
-1/2 teaspoon of raw honey or maple syrup
-2 cups of purified water
Editor’s note: it really does taste like apple pie!
Ginger Tea
Ginger tea is so easy to make and is good for you for so many reasons. If you’re suffering from a migraine, cramps or general fatigue, then you’re going to want to go ahead and make this simple tea.
All you need to do is place some sliced ginger root into a tea infuser. Then steep as you would a tea bag in hot water. Add some raw honey for sweetness if you like! Step for 5 minutes and remove the infuser before drinking.
Lemon Water with Mint
This invigorating drink is also great first thing in the morning to jump start your metabolism. And if you’re bad at drinking plain water throughout the day, this is an excellent alternative to high-calorie drinks and sodas. Just mix together the juice of one lemon, 3 mint leaves, and 1 tsp honey) optional into a glass of water.
