NALGENE LEMON REFRESHER

Steps:

• Microwave the lemon for 15 seconds, take out and roll on the counter pushing down with a medium amount of pressure, microwave for an additional 20 seconds.
• Slice lemon in half and sqeeze as much juice as you want into the bottom of your Nalgene bottle. We like the juice of a whole lemon in each 32 ounces but you might like more or less.
• Open and empty the sweet-n-low into the bottom of the Nalgene.
• Fill to the top with ice.
• Pour water over top and close Nalgene, shake for about 20 seconds to combine.
• Enjoy! :).
