Notes:
Generally, it’s the best avoid ice cold water since it can be a lot for your body to process. It takes a lot more energy to process ice cold water than it does warm water. Always use organic if possible, never bottled lemon juice. Be sure to always dilute lemon juice with water because lemon juice can be very corrosive on the enamel of your teeth.

[𝗡𝗘𝗪 𝗥𝗘𝗖𝗜𝗣𝗘]🍒𝗕𝗹𝗮𝗰𝗸 𝗙𝗼𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝗖𝗮𝗸𝗲
Originated in the Black Forest region of Germany, is typically made with a light chocolate sponge cake, soaked with cherry syrup and cherry brandy (Kirsch), then layered with whipped cream and cherries. This version swaps the chocolate sponge for a denser, fudgier chocolate cake. The filling is made of cherries, coconut and cashew cream, which is also the frosting. Recipe link in my bio, enjoy!

🍒 It’s a yummy combo and a great way to use up the abundance of cherries during cherry season!
