‘Easy peasy lemongrass squeezy’ spritz

A lemongrass spritz… an elixir if you will. Made in a little time from simple ingredients with no juicing or big messes required. Happy- almost end of- dry January!!

I’ve been craving lemongrass so I decided to share what I made for my weekly mocktail Monday hehehe.

This is a solo or two person recipe

Here’s what you’ll need:

1 lime

Stalks of lemongrass

Boiling water

Honey

Sparkling water

Lemongrass tincture

Flower or crystal essences

Cut one or two lemongrass stalks into small pieces, then place them in a heat safe cup, boil hot water and pour boiling water over lemongrass. Let cool.

Mix in the honey and a squeeze of lime to your desired sweet, sour levels

In a glass, pour the ice and sparkling water (it’s always optional for health reasons to skip the ice and sparkling water but to add extra fanciness I like to include it). Then pour in the cooled lemongrass tea honey and lime mix

Use part of the stalk as a garnish for the glass

Add your tincture and essences to top it off! Lemongrass tincture can be used for digestion (cramps, bloating), pain/inflammation (headaches, arthritis), stress/sleep (anxiety, insomnia), and immune support.

Enjoy! Bonus points if you journal, light a candle, or take a bath with your health tonic!
