'African Heat' Spicy Lemonade

Spicy Ginger Lemonade in a carafe and a tumbler with lemon and ginger next to it.

If you enjoy lemon and ginger tea during the cold winter months, we have a cold and refreshing drink option for you. Our Spicy Lemonade may be cold in terms of temperature, but it certainly makes up in the heat that ginger and cayenne pepper leave dancing on your tongue. Sweetened with honey, this is a refined-sugar-free drink that can be made with still or sparkling water.
