Notes
Use high-quality, unrefined Himalayan pink salt for best mineral content.
If your water tastes too salty, try reducing the pink salt or adding more lemon.
Don’t boil the water—just warm is ideal for sipping and mixing.
The drink is most commonly consumed first thing in the morning.
Best consumed fresh.
If prepping ahead, store in the fridge for up to 12 hours and gently rewarm before drinking.
