zestfully

/ˈzɛstfəɫli/ adv

With zest or enthusiasm.

Word Origin Zest comes from French 'zeste', originally a piece of orange peel used to add flavor. The idea of something that adds a sharp, lively taste shifted to mean enthusiasm and energy. So zestfully means doing something with that same lively flavor — full of zest. The same root gives us 'zestful' and 'zesty'.
