Lemon Lime Refresher

Commercial refreshment beverages are loaded with artificial flavors and colors, calories and refined white sugar. Agave is lower on the glycemic index than other sweeteners and can be purchased at the health food store. It has a mild flavour and mixes well into hot or cold drinks. This beverage concentrate can be frozen in ice cube trays and then put into your water bottle to bring to your workout.
