I was wondering if this can be used for my morning lemon drink. I'm having a little problem drinking plain lemon water.

Hey Carrie- What's the problem? Is it too bitter? It has been said that the more bitter a lemon tastes the more acidic your body is and as your body's PH becomes more alkaline your taste changes. Maybe try just 1/2 a lemon and see if that works for you. Think of the lemon water as fuel that jump starts your system and cleanly filters your organs to start the day! Or if necessary try adding 1/4tsp of honey to the water. :)
