Green Tea Lemon Water – Hello Beautiful Morning Complexion Drink
I’m not sure what to call this drink..lemon water? Green tea with lemon, honey, cayenne, and cinnamon? Yeah… so I just call it “Hello Beautiful” morning tea because I drink it first thing in the morning and it makes my skin look sooooo pretty and radiant when I drink it consistently.
I usually always slack off when I run out of fresh lemons but I’m determined to keep up with it this year. There are so many benefits to the ingredients in this tea. Just do a google search and you will be flooded with information about it helping with circulation, acne, weight loss, cholesterol, diseases, detoxing, and all kinda good stuff.
Drink it first thing in the morning on an empty stomach. It’s suppose to help with metabolism a lot and get your body in motion and feeling fabulous! Honestly I’m not sure how I feel about it as a “weight management” drink because I use it to detox my skin.
It works great at evening out my skin tone. I also use plain green tea as a facial toner. It’s so amazing!!
Watch me make this “Good Morning Beautiful” Morning Tea from start to finish!

This recipe sounds wonderful for the evening if morning isn’t the best time. I love tea and usually have my afternoon or evening tea everyday after work. Thanks for a great recipe.
Thanks for the comment Theresa!
There’s no debating green tea has many health benefits. But having it first thing in the morning may not be a good idea after all. A study done on dietary supplement with green tea extracts found that green tea supplement on an empty stomach can have adverse effects on the liver.
I enjoy this recipe, however I did do some research and found that it is not good first thing in the morning on an empty stomach after all.
I agree it’s not a good idea first thing in the morning. I literally just had this tea on an empty stomach around 7:30am and sure enough 10 mins later I felt nauseous and started vomiting. Definitely gonna try it after I have lunch. The tea itself has amazing health benefits but I realize it will be better that I drink it after a meal.
Regular drinking of tea can boost your complexion. Its a good source of antioxidants which makes skin firmer and radiant looking. These antioxidants helps to minimize the premature signs of aging, maintaining your youthful looking skin. Tea can be use also as an ingredient to your facial care.
