Master Cleanse Forum - Master Cleanser Lemonade Diet

Its my first day on the cleanse, second time trying. I realized using lemon juice instead of lemons wasnt the way to go. So Im using fresh lemons now, doing everything the same. Except somehow, its spicier than it was before. Its spicey and bitter and Im having a hard time drinking it. It might be the fresh lemons are more bitter, or maybe they bring out the ceyenne pepper more?
What can I do?

My Proportions -
8 TBSP lemon juice – preferably freshly squeezed.
8 TBSP pure Grade B maple syrup
1/3 TSP of cayenne pepper
32 OZ warm water

You can use less cayenne pepper. And always mix that in right before drinking the lemonade. Never let the cayenne pepper stew in the lemonade for hours, as it will increase the spiciness.
