Everyone knows about the benefits of citrus fruits. So why not use them to charge the body with energy and good mood? For example, to cook a delicious and healthy compote. And regardless of the time of year and the weather outside the window.

We prepare pomelo, oranges, grapefruits, lemons. All the ingredients are washed well with soap to wash off the layer of preservatives from the peel, which is applied to citrus fruits to increase shelf life.

Washed citrus fruits are cut into pieces, slices or circles. In general, as it is more convenient and more like. We transfer the chopped citrus fruits into a saucepan. Using a fork, crush the citrus pieces a little to release some juice.

We fill citrus fruits with sugar, fill them with water. Put the pan on medium heat and bring the contents to a boil, but do not boil! When boiling, vitamin C is quickly destroyed, and it is he who is the key when it comes to citrus fruits.

It's time to try the compote and adjust its taste - add water if it seems too saturated.Or sugar, if you want more sweetness.

Remove the pan from the heat, cool the drink. During cooling, its taste will become even more vivid. Then we pour the compote into glasses, decorate it to your taste, for example, with mint sprigs, orange peel, etc.

We serve to the table! You can also serve it with ice cubes if it's a hot summer day. And in the cold season, you can serve it warm. In this case, it will not refresh, as on a summer day, but rather play the role of a vitamin bomb for the body.

Good health! Delicious drinks!
