Lemon Rooibos Detox Tea

We're here, that week of the year when we all want to eat healthier and feel better. Well, I have a simple, delicious tea that will certainly do your body good!

This Lemon Rooibos Detox Tea comes from Sally Errey, Nutrition Consultant, and author of Rooibos Revolution. As I've mentioned before, I love Rooibos tea. I drink several beautiful varieties from Seaside Tea Company everyday (they also have sensational green teas). This detox tea recipe is simple, as follows:

1 cup (250 ml) Rooibos tea, brewed
1 Tbsp (15 ml) maple syrup
Freshly-squeezed juice of half a lemon
Cayenne pepper to taste (sparingly)

Stir maple syrup, lemon juice and cayenne together in a mug. Fill with hot Rooibos tea and enjoy first thing in morning. Serves 1.

If any of you are interested in a more comprehensive detox plan, you can visit Sally's website for details on a 3-day detox program that includes an audio seminar, articles, and recipes.

Drink up and feel good!
