This ginger lemon ice cube recipe by modest little kitchen is an absolute treat. I put this in hot water to make tea during the cold seasons and in sparkling water for a refreshing drink in the summer. You can add honey to make it a little bit sweet and not too bitter. It’s super healthy and good for you. Drink this whenever you have flu or a cold!
Ingredients:
- five organic lemons
- one big piece of ginger
- one cup of water

Instructions:
Step 1:
Thoroughly wash the skin of the lemon to remove any dirt and dust. Once done, wipe them dry with a clean cloth.
Step 2:
Peel the skin of the ginger. You can use a knife to peel it off, but you can also use a spoon. Just scrape the edge of it against the ginger. After removing the skin, cut them into small cubes.
Step 3:
Using a peeler, remove the zest from the lemons. Try not to include the white part as much as possible, as it can be a bit bitter. Set them aside on a plate. Cut the lemons in half, squeeze the juice, and remove any seeds. You need approximately 1 cup of lemon juice.
Step 4:
In a blender, add lemon zest, lemon juice, ginger cubes, and one cup of water. Blend until smooth.
Step 5:
You can drink it right away, but you can also make frozen cubes. Pour into your ice cube tray and place in the freezer for a few hours. You can use one cube for a hot drink or you can also add it to sparkling water.
