On health - Lemon and lime (sitron og lime)

Water is the healthiest drink, no doubt about it. It has the most natural color and taste but you can make the taste better and lovelier by adding some lemon and lime juice in it.
My style: I only drink lukewarm or even warmer water. Pour the water in a clear mug. I use lemon and lime to have a healthy drink and use lemon/lime slices to decorate the mug or glass making  the water irresistible and interesting to drink. Remember : Sensuality is the key-word here.

 Lemon and lime.
