Ingredients
1/2 cup baking soda
1 lemon, thinly sliced - reserve a couple of slices for foot bath
1 bunch of fresh mint, finely chopped
Equipment:
Medium bowl, 12" square of cheesecloth or a large coffee filter, rubber band
Instructions:
In a square of cheesecloth, or in coffee filter, loosely pack in sliced lemons and chopped
mint Fill bowl with hot water, and steep "sachet" for 5 minutes. Fill a foot bath with cool
water, and swirl baking soda in. Add lemon-mint "tea" squeezing the sachet to remove
as much as possible. Add reserved lemons, and soak feet for ten minutes.
This is a remarkable "pick-me-up", especially if feet are overworked and hot. The
'tea' can be prepared up to 24 hours ahead and chilled, before use, too.
