I usually mix up 3/4 C Lemon Juice-1/3 C Syrup-1/2 TB Cayenne Pepper along with 64 oz Water! The extra batch of Lemon I put in a covered jar and refrig til I do the next batch! It usually lasts 1 day! I don't use quite as much syrup because I have hypoglycemia! I have read that if you use 1 scant TB Molasses, building up to 2 TB per glass it will cause the pancreas to produce more insulin! Will try that next time! Also didn't know to drink water in between Lemon drink! Learn a lot listening to the forums!
