And this is dangerous, because usually the slice with the peel is put into the tea.

Therefore, the lemon peel needs to be cleaned again. And the fruit should be washed not with plain water, but with a soda solution (a teaspoon of sodium bicarbonate per liter of clean liquid).

It is advisable to use a kitchen sponge when performing the procedure. Of course, the product must be absolutely new and clean.

Have you disinfected the surface of the lemon? Rinse the fruit with plain water, "roll" it on the table and cut it.

The penultimate step is to ensure that more lemon juice appears in the tea, making the drink much more aromatic.
