  • About
From a twist to a squeeze to a whole lot of satiating sour, lemons and limes are nutritional powerhouses of liver detoxification that also happen to pair well with nearly any alcohol. To reap all the benefits you can from these guys, be sure to squeeze fresh ones and do not use that weird processed bottled stuff. The ways to use lemons and limes are manifold, so let’s take advantage of them all!
Citrus is the most commonly used mixer and will be found in recipes throughout this book, but the recipes in this particular section highlight the flavors of lemons and limes as well as their health benefits. For instance, did you know that lemon and lime peels contain pectin, which helps to slow down the absorption of sugar into the body? That means that by grating them finely enough in your beverage, you’re actually going to improve your body’s ability to deal with the blood-sugar implications of the drink you’re consuming.
