Hello Amazing Drinks friends... Here I share my publication for this space and I hope you like it and also that you are full of energy and health.
Days ago I had body discomfort, cold and I wanted to prepare an infusion of chamomile, santa maria leaves (citrona) and lemon.

To prepare your infusion, you will need the following
INGREDIENTS AND UTENSILS:
- Branches of Citrona (St. Mary's leaves).
- 1 sachet of chamomile flowers.
- Sugar or honey to taste.
- 2 lemons.
- Orange peel.
- Water 3 cups.
- Small pot.
- Spoon.
- Strainer.
- Cups.

STEPS FOR THE PREPARATION:
*Wash the utensils to be used and the branches of citrona (saint maria leaf).

*Heat water until it boils approximately one cup of water per person.

*Add the citrona (saint maria leaf), chamomile and orange peel.



*Remove from heat and let it sit, covered, for 5-10 minutes.

*Strain the infusion and squeeze the juice of half a lemon (or a quarter, if it is very large) in each cup.

*Sweeten (optional): If you wish, you can add honey or sugar to taste.

The combination of chamomile tea, santa maria leaf (or hierba de santa maria) and lemon is a traditional infusion because it is a relaxing and calming drink, with just the right balance of flavor in each sip for that sweet and light bitter combination that will put you at ease from the head down. It is preferable to drink it at night so you can rest easy.

BENEFITS OF THE DIFFERENT INGREDIENTS:
% CHAMOMILE:
# It is anti-inflammatory, digestive, antispasmodic, soothing, antibacterial, healing, antioxidant, skin care, hair care and relaxing.
# Chamomile and St. Mary's leaf can help relieve digestive problems such as indigestion, stomach pain and gas.
# Chamomile is known for its relaxing properties and can help reduce stress and anxiety.
% SAINT MARY LEAVES:
# St. Mary's leaf may be useful in relieving respiratory problems such as coughs and congestion.
# It helps to reduce fever and inflammation of the kidneys, soothe stomach aches, prevent indigestion, constipation, diarrhea, respiratory problems (mainly asthma and bronchitis).
Considerations:
Although St. Mary's leaf has many benefits, it is important to use caution, especially during pregnancy, lactation and in pediatrics, as it may have stimulant effects on the central nervous system.
% LEMON OR ORANGE PEEL:
# Lemon provides vitamin C, which is important for the immune system.
# Aids digestion, mental health and supports heart health.
Thank you for joining me here, until another opportunity and for your valuable support and with another delicious drink.
