Mint Lemonade

This recipe was lying in my drafts for quite some time. I love this simple combination of ground mint and freshly squeezed lemons as it is tangy, refreshing and a great thirst quencher too. This slushy drink contains lots of lemonade as well as lots of mint which gives it a strong flavor and a bright colour. It is a perfect drink to have on a hot and humid afternoons.

Ingredients:-
  • handful of mint leaves
  • 1 cup sprite
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • ½ tsp black salt
  • lots of ice cubes
Method:-
  • Combine all the ingredients in a blender. 
  • Blend it well.
  • Pour into glasses.
  • Serve chilled. 
Notes:-
  • You may also substitute black salt for ¼ tsp salt
  • You may use any white drink (7 up, mountain dew, or even soda) instead of sprite.
Happy Cooking!!
