A trip to South Bend, Indiana would not be complete without visiting the town's claim to fame; Whole Foods ;) Just kidding! The University of Notre Dame is a breathtaking college campus packed with history and prestige.
Having spent one morning last week on campus, I did wander over to the local Whole Foods. While there, I was able to take part in a Suja Juice Tasting. Suja Juices are cold pressed and organic and do not contain GMO's. The company bottles a variety of different flavors and even markets a "fresh start" cleanse program.
Prior to meeting with the Suja rep, I had only tasted their Vanilla Cloud beverage. She suggested that I try their Lemon Love. I'm not lying to you when I say that after one sip, I was hooked! The kicker, literally, was the addition of cayenne pepper flakes to the juice. Not only is the spice high in vitamin A, it cayenne also offers natural pain relief, boosts heart health, stimulates the circulatory system, increases metabolism and suppresses appetite. It also provides just enough "umph" to amp up the lemon water!
Since I was unable to smuggle a bottle back to NJ, I came up with a knock off to this lovely libation!
Sizzling Lemon Sip:
8 oz Water
Juice of 1 / 2 of a Lemon
10 drops of Liquid Stevia
1 /2 tsp of Cayenne Pepper Powder
Mix ALL ingredients together.
Enjoy!
