Canarino Digestivo (Lemon Infused Digestive Drink)

Category: Beverages
Serves: 2

Ingredients:

Ingredient Quantity
Water 400g
Lemon Peel 1 piece

Instructions:

  1. Begin by thoroughly washing the lemon. Carefully peel the zest using a vegetable peeler, ensuring to avoid the bitter white pith, as this could make the drink overly bitter.
  2. Pour the water into a small saucepan and add the freshly peeled lemon zest.
  3. Heat the water gently on medium heat until it takes on a light yellow hue, infusing the flavor of the lemon zest into the water.
  4. Once the water has reached the desired color, strain the drink through a fine mesh sieve into a glass or mug to remove the zest, if preferred.
  5. Serve warm and enjoy the refreshing digestive benefits of this traditional Italian “Canarino Digestivo.”

This soothing beverage is not only a delightful after-meal treat but also known for aiding digestion thanks to the invigorating lemon flavor. Perfect for those moments when you seek a light, refreshing drink to settle your stomach after a satisfying meal.
