The latest tips from Amanda

It is good for you or so I am told

OK so I keep reading Fithacker and it advises me on what I should be eating and drinking to improve my general health, but to be honest I do like an easy life as well as being a bit tight with my money!

Apparently lemon mixed with ginger in a glass of water is really good for you and we should be drinking it first thing in the morning. Sounds wonderful but there is no way I am going to get out of bed any earlier than I already do to start grating ginger and squeezing lemons especially when I am trying to get the kids to school and myself ready for work - don't get me wrong, I try to be  good but I am not that good!
So to make life a bit easier, I grated some ginger, squeezed a lemon and added the grated zest, then mixed it together and stuck it in an ice tray to freeze.  Now when I feel I should be healthy I can defrost as much as I need,  pop it in some iced water and hey presto a nice refreshing drink and some extra brownie points before I rush out of the door

Hints and tips
If you have any frozen lemon slices stick them in the water instead of ice cubes.  As I grow mint in a pot in my garden I add some leaves to give it a more intense and refreshing flavour
