Lemon and Mint Refresher
Phew! It’s hot!
Time for another refreshing cold drink.
Lemon and Mint Refresher
Half-fill a tumbler with ice. Add 3 mint leaves and 3 lemon verbena or lemon balm leaves. Add 1 tsp brown sugar and the juice of half a lemon. Mash together a little to release the flavour of the leaves, and then top up with sparkling mineral water.
Add a sprig of mint and a slice of lemon to garnish and stir till the sugar has dissolved.
Aaah. That’s nice and cold!
How do you keep cool in a heatwave?

Good stuff…..As for me, I Always squeeze 2 lemons, add 5 or 6 teaspoons of brown sugar ( Never touched white refined sugar in the last 40 or so years ) 😉 top it up with at least 1 litre of filtered water, and there goes the thirst in hot days for me. 😀
Now on that picture …..I like square glass, but not sure if I trust glass spoon ? 😀
