Quench your thirst with this delicious and hydrating low-carb mint lemonade!
Conventional sodas and sports drinks are loaded with sugar, artificial colors, and chemical flavorings. They will spike your blood sugar, cause inflammation, and knock you out of the Keto Zone.
But do not fret, this tasty keto lemonade will keep you hydrated without spiking your blood sugar.
Made with mint and ginger tea as a base, this lemonade is far more flavorful and medicinal than what you will get from a standard lemonade stand!
Lemons are loaded with potassium which is an important electrolyte mineral.
Sea salt is also added to this recipe to replenish the sodium and other trace minerals that are normally lost on a keto diet.
So get ready to try your new favorite low-carb beverage: refreshing keto mint lemonade!
