Apple, Hawthorn and Job's Tears Water

Why people make this water

Apples are good for the gut and the heart and circulation, and the skin holds far more antioxidants than the flesh, so Nourilo keeps it on. Because the peel can carry pesticide residue and wax, he soaks and scrubs it with salt, or dunks it in hot water briefly to rinse off what shouldn’t be there. Simmered with Job’s tears and a little hawthorn, the drink is traditionally turned to for supporting the liver, gentle weight management and steadier blood sugar, and it can help with a dry, bitter mouth.
