What's one of the best ways to detox your liver and kidneys? Lemon water! We all know it and love it. A warm cup of lemon water is the best. But what about those pesky seeds? And we all know we need to use a straw if we don't want to ruin our enamel on our teeth. But who wants to use a plastic straw with warm water??? It just feels like the plastic is melting and you are adding more toxins to your body instead of removing them!
That is why you need to say "hello!" to the straw that is made for drinking loose leaf Yerba Mate out of a traditional gourd cup. This special straw is called a bombilla (pronounced “Bom-Bee-Sha"). We have one for drinking mate and one morning I thought... hmmm... I should try this for lemon water!
It keeps the seeds out of your mouth AND is made of metal so there is no melting plastic! It's PERFECT! It is basically a fancy metal straw with a covered filter at the bottom so tea leaves (or lemon seeds) can't be sucked up through the straw.
You can buy them on Amazon and at other more traditional Yerba Mate sites. Check them out and save your pearly whites!
You can also skip the lemon and use Young Living Lemon essential oil! It is easy and yummy and NO SEEDS! Contact me for how to order Young Living oils!!! Don't worry. You can still use the awesome bombilla straw ;)
Awesome!! And you can boil it to get all those little holes clean. Got my first stainless steel straw and love it!
