Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
1/2 cup sugar
1/3 cup packed fresh mint leaves
2 cups water
About 3 cups ice cubes, cracked if large
Garnish: 4 fresh mint sprigs

Steps:

  • Blend lemon juice, sugar, and mint leaves in a blender until leaves are finely chopped and sugar is dissolved. Add water and enough ice cubes to fill blender, then blend until smooth. Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Use fresh mint leaves. Fresh mint leaves provide the best flavor for lemonade, so if you can, try to find them at your local grocery store or farmers market. If you can't find fresh mint, you can use dried mint leaves, but they won't be as flavorful.
  • Make a simple syrup. A simple syrup is a mixture of sugar and water that is heated until the sugar dissolves. This syrup can be used to sweeten the lemonade and make it more flavorful. To make a simple syrup, combine 1 cup of sugar and 1 cup of water in a saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat. Stir until the sugar dissolves, then remove from heat and let cool.
  • Use frozen lemons. Frozen lemons are a great way to add a tart flavor to lemonade. You can freeze lemons whole or in slices. To use frozen lemons, simply thaw them at room temperature for about 30 minutes before juicing.
  • Add other flavors. You can add other flavors to lemonade to make it more interesting. Some popular additions include ginger, basil, strawberries, and blueberries. You can also add a splash of club soda or sparkling water to make the lemonade more refreshing.
  • Serve lemonade cold. Lemonade is best served cold, so be sure to chill it before serving. You can chill lemonade in the refrigerator or in a cooler filled with ice.

Conclusion:

Frozen Mint Lemonade is a refreshing and flavorful drink that is perfect for a hot summer day. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With a few simple ingredients, you can make a delicious and healthy frozen mint lemonade that the whole family will enjoy. Experiment with different flavors and garnishes to find your favorite combination.
