I have never loved drinking water. I have looked for things to flavor my water for a long time. I even have a very great filter. (RO). I have used the flavored drink mix-ins (the ones with stevia), but that gets expensive. So when I first got my Lemon oil I tried it and it worked. Loved it. I now drink tons of water and I am cleansing my body(liver). Lemon is a quick energizer, it also helps with colds, flu, and respiratory infections. It can improve circulation and is an excellent antibacterial agent. Put it directly on fingernails to strengthen them.
I make several different drinks. Recipes:
Drink 1:
1 qt of water
2-4 drops of Lemon
Stevia to taste
Lots of Ice
Drink 2:
1 qt of water
2-4 drops of Lemon
2-4 drops of Orange
1 drop of Peppermint
Stevia and Ice
Drink 3:
1 qt of water
5-8 drops of Slim and Sassy oil
Stevia and Ice
Drink 4:
1 cup of Almond milk
2-4 drops of Orange OR Lemon
Lots of Ice and little Stevia.
Blend Up. Yummy and only 40 calories. If you get the unsweetened Plain kind. So good
Drink 5:
1 cup of water
1 real Orange
3-5 drops of Orange oil
1/3 scoop of Protein Pwd -Vanilla
2 T of plain fat free yogurt
Lots of Ice and Stevia(opt). Very healthy and satisfying for that afternoon slump.
Blend Up
Drink 6:
1 cup of almond milk or water
2-4 T of chocolate protein pwd
2 T of Carob pwd or Cocoa pwd
pinch of stevia (opt)
1 small drop of Peppermint Or 2-4 drops of Orange
Lots of Ice and Blend Up.
Feel free to comment and give recipes. I will try yours and post them. The ideas can be endless.
The cutest thing is that my 3 yr old daughter loves "her drink". She says all the time. "Can I have ice, stevia and that yummy oil in my cup." I am getting my kids to like the slight bitterness of stevia (a natural sweetener from a plant, doesn't raise blood sugar.)
I wanted to share my stories of Essential Oils in a blog. They have really changed my life. I have been using oils for 2 1/2 years. I opened a Book about the oils and wow! I have always been into very healthy living. I have used herbs and natural healthy foods since I was born. But for some reason never essential oils. Now that I am a mother of 6 children I can't believe I ever lived without them. These are my stories and stories of others I trust. Learn and Share.
