Thyme Lemonade
Healthy, because
Even smarter
Nutritional values
The yellow citrus fruit supports the immune system with a crisp portion of vitamin C, which also accelerates wound healing. Thymol and other essential and secondary plant substances in thyme stimulate the formation of digestive juices in the stomach, gall bladder and liver.
If you prefer it vegan, you can replace the honey with a plant-based sweetener, such as maple syrup, agave syrup or coconut blossom sugar.
