Ginger, Lemon and Parsley Drink combines water with fresh ginger, lemon and parsley. It may be made by steeping the ingredients or blending them with water, so the flavour and texture vary from one recipe to another; it can be enjoyed without added sugar.
Ginger brings a warm, peppery bite, lemon adds tartness, and parsley gives the drink a fresh, green note. Serve it chilled as a refreshing drink alongside a meal, or sip it at home in place of a sweetened beverage. Unsweetened, it is very low in calories. For a milder cup, use less ginger and adjust the lemon to taste.
