infusoThis lemon infusion is named for its colour which is canary lemon. Canarino is an ancient remedy, very simple and effective that helps digestion. Try it if you feel sick or bloated, if you have headache or just in case of a slight indigestion.

Ingredients

For a single person
1 lemon and its juice (3 tablespoons of LIMMI)
59 cl of water

Clean and peel the lemon, paying attention to strip off the white part. Put the rind into a pot together with water and the lemon juice. Boil it up, then remove from the fire and let it rest few minutes before drinking. Thus, pour into a cup and add sugar or honey.

If you have LIMMI, just pour the juice into a cup full of hot water and cover it for a couple of minutes (so you don’t waste the flavour), add sugar and enjoy.
