Load up on water this summer and feel your best! Hydration is so important. Water keeps our organs functioning properly and not drinking enough can lead to low energy, headaches, muscle cramps, and more.

Do you have a hard time drinking water? Try adding flavors like citrus, herbs, or flowers to make it fun! This Lilac Lemon Water adds both citrus and floral for a beautiful and refreshing drink.

A closer look at what’s inside:

Water

Up to 60% of the human body is made up of water — so it makes sense that we would need to drink water regularly to maintain balance. Especially during the hot summer months when we are sweating more. Health authorities generally recommend you drink a minimum of eight 8oz glasses of water per day. Depending on your body weight and how much you are sweating, you may want to drink more.

Lemon

This citrus fruit is loaded with flavor! Adding lemon slices to your water is thought to be beneficial for immunity, digestion, skin health, weight loss, and more. Many health experts recommend drinking lemon water in the morning to help maintain your body’s pH balance.

Lilac

Yes, this beautiful flower is edible! I love the smell of lilac, and the taste of it is just as lovely. Make sure you are using lilac that hasn’t been sprayed with pesticides or other chemicals.
