Lemon and Job's Tears Water

Why people make this water

Nourilo here. Children have a fast metabolism and, as a result, run warm easily. When a child’s urine is scanty, doesn’t flow freely, or has a strong smell, it can simply be that fast-paced “growing heat” — but it can also be an early sign of something to watch. A simple Job’s tears water sipped in place of plain water is traditionally used to help urine flow more freely, and adding a vitamin-C-rich lemon makes it more refreshing for hot days.
