Morning Beauty Blast!



First things first....
7am

 Skin 

Give your morning a beauty blast with this quick, simple detoxifying and alkalising morning tea.

Great if you've had a night of heavy drinking or sugar binging.....trust me! lol!



Recipe:

The fresh juice of half a lemon.
A pinch or two of the spice turmeric (or cayenne pepper*)
Hot water. 
Cold filtered water to top up.

Slice the lemon in half.
Squeeze the juice into a tall glass. (I like to do this the Italian way!**)
Fill half the glass with hot water (boiled and left to stand for a couple of minutes).
Sprinkle in your turmeric.
Fill the remaining half of the glass with cold water.
Drink slowly.


* I prefer turmeric first thing in the morning, it's a little gentler. Cayenne is fiery!

** my darling singing teacher of 5 years, Madame Nadine du Barry introduced me to this method. Her husband Georgio was Italian. You hold the lemon half in one hand and a fork in the other. Over your glass, push the fork into the lemon flesh and wriggle fork while squeezing the lemon. It's quite fun!
