A Master Cleanse I can live with...

I found this online. I could really get into this "cleanse":

2 ounces sage-and-rosemary-infused vodka
1 tablespoon plus 2 teaspoons Grade B maple syrup
2 tablespoons fresh-squeezed lemon juice
1/10 teaspoon cayenne pepper

First, infuse the vodka: Bruise three big sprigs of fresh rosemary and five or six fresh sage leaves by rolling them between your fingers. Place them in a Mason jar, add 10-12 ounces of vodka, and allow to steep overnight.

Dip out 2 ounces vodka (don’t bring along any of the herbs) and place into an ice-filled shaker along with the maple syrup, lemon juice and cayenne. Shake well and strain into a stemmed cocktail glass, or pour over one large piece of ice into a rocks glass.

    Sounds like an interesting combination... just don't call it a cleanse, that's just... no.

    Lol. Sounds like a fun cleanse to me. I've done infused vodka with lemon peel and rosemary and it was really yummy. Maybe I'll try this "cleanse" the next time I need to clear my brain!

    The same mix without the vodka and two spoons of gin also makes a really good salad dressing.....:o).

    This. Brain cells have mass, so the less of them I have, the less I weigh.

    Also the contents of my stomach if I partake of too many glasses of the "cleanse."
