Mint Lemondade

Mint Lemonade (stolen from Kelly)

Mint Lemonade

Recipe for Mint Lemonade:

  • 4 cups water
  • 2 1/2 cups fresh squeezed lemon juice (8-10 lemons)
  • 1/4 cup finely diced mint
  • 1 cup sugar

First, prepare your mint. You can de-vein the mint leaf, so it doesn’t taste too earthy, then dices it up super fine.

Then squeeze your fresh lemons. I highly suggest an automatic lemon squeezer, making the process of squeezing 10 lemons a snap.

Then add your water and sugar and blend.

Now start sipping! The blend of lemon and mint is delicious. I also love the green flecks of mint that come out. You can strain the mint if you don’t want it to show up, but I think it makes the drink all the more fancy. This is one of my new favorite drinks. I love all things sour and this lemony drink fits right in.
