My sister makes lemon water. They say it's healthy. She cuts the lemon and add to water with ice. She adds no sugar so it's not sweet. I don't like it because it's not sweet but they say it's good that way.

The easiest way is to use a blender to blend the whole lemon. As long as the blending does not take too long, there will still be pieces of peel floating around. The lemon peel has medication properties. It is good for combating inflammation.

@Lupita234 No, it won't. You have to use the lemons with thin peel, not the thick ones. There are some lemons with peels that are as thin as those of small limes.

@averygirl72 The bitter taste is the proof of medication properties. Those lemons with thin peels are better than those with thick peels, because the peels are not that bitter.

The whole lemon? The skin taste a little bitter. I think it's not a good idea to use a blender. Maybe just juicer

@averygirl72 Yes. Actually lemon is expensive and not indigenous here. Probably, "'kalamansi" will do.

@SIMPLYD That's true and kalamansi taste really great with sugar

@averygirl72 No, I drink lemon water time by time in summer when it is very hot. Most of the time I drink sparkling mineral water.

Many online articles mention that lemon water is very healthy. I like drinking it. But I don't often make it since I need to buy the lemons. Not all the stores will have lemons.

Yes I found out too. Luckily here it's available in the public market and the more class supermarkets. It's cheaper in public markets

yes, i finally tried lemon water this summer. it's supposed to be warm water and drank first thing in the morning, but i can't do it. so to compromise i put slices of lemon in a jug of water, put it in the fridge and drink a glass when i'm thirsty. pretty refreshing, but i can't say i have noticed any health benefits yet.

I sometimes just add a tiny bit of lemon to water. That way you don't notice that it is not too sweet.
