Lemon tea has both the benefits of lemon and tea.Lemon is a natural refresher and antiseptic and tea is full of anti oxidants and therefore lemon tea is sure to refresh your mind and cleanse your body.

- It is definitely refreshing and boosts your mood!It surely does relieve stress.
Here comes the recipe for which I used:
Water-3 cups
Tea leaves- 3 teaspoons
Lemon juice to taste
Cinnamon -a small piece
Honey to sweeten
- Boil water in a pot and put in the tea leaves,cinnamon stick.
- Simmer for 5 minutes
- Strain into a pitcher and add lemon juice and honey to taste.[While adding the lemon juice to the tea you would surely fall in love with that tempting orangey yellow liquid!]

Note:
- If you want to add to the beauty of the lemon tea,you can serve with a piece of lemon in each cup.
- For a vegan version,use sugar to sweeten
