Margarita de pepino e sumagre

Talya Lutzker, profissional certificada em ayurveda e coach de estilo de vida de Santa Cruz, ajuda mulheres a cuidar da saúde e de si mesmas para que se sintam energizadas, fortes e cheias de vitalidade em qualquer idade. Ela também experimenta o que chama de uma versão “refrescantemente ácida e terrosa” de um mocktail clássico com bastante limão e vitamina C do pepino. “Deliciosa demais”, diz ela, “com um perfil de sabor ácido e visual vibrante”.
