With all the cold that we have been having these days, it’s a great idea to pump as much Vitamin C into us as possible. We have had an unusually cold winter so far and it’s not over yet….I mean it’s been really cold for us!! Like really!
Here in Texas, we just are not used to that. I’m not complaining though~I LOVE the cold weather!! BRRRR!!!!
With all of the beautiful oranges and blood oranges that are in the grocery stores this time of the year….this is a great way to use them!
You can easily add different fruits and even mint or basil would be a perfect addition to add to the flavor. {I’m thinking pomegranate arils, sliced strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, blackberries, peaches would all be nice choices….the list goes on and on.}
It’s so refreshing….reminds me of spa water, but sunnier.
