Lemon Juice With Mint

24 08 2008

What began as an office order by randomly picking out some juice from the menu, this juice has become one of my personal favourites! Though this drink is mainly known by the name of Lemon Juice with Mint, I believe Mint Juice with Lemon would do more justice to it. As mentioned sometime back, I now have the recipe perfected through trial and error thanks to which my mom inists I make it all the time!

Lemon Juice With Mint
Serves 4-5
Duration: 5-10 minutes

Ingredients:
5-6 ice cubes
5 tbsp sugar
Bunch of fresh mint leaves extracted from 6-7 mint twigs
Lemon Juice of 1.5 Lemons
600 mL water

Blend all the ingredients for a minute in a blender. Remove the lid at once and separate the thick green foam from the surface of the juice with the help of a large spoon or strain lightly. The drink is ready to be served. The magic ingredient I have discovered in this drink is ice, try preparing without ice and you’ll notice the gigantic taste difference. Sweet with a minty feel and a mysterious tangy touch, this drink is so cool that you can actually feel it coolly trickle down your food pipe. Best way to beat the heat and quench your thirst during summer!
