MINTAIDE

Tuesday, May 25, 2010


This is a new favorite in our house!
Takes a few minutes to make with all freshly squeezed fruit!
You can feel good letting your kids gulp down this drink!


Mintade

1 cup fresh squeezed lemon juice, strained

1/2 cup fresh squeezed orange juice, strained

1/4 cup fresh squeezed lime juice, strained

6 cups icy cold water

1 cup fine granulated sugar*

1 cup fresh mint leaves, torn

lots of ice

Combine juices and water in a pitcher. Stir in sugar, until dissolved. Stir in mint leaves, smashing leaves with spoon to release mint oil. Pour into ice-filled glasses.

*I like to use fine granulated sugar, however regular sugar works okay too. It will just take a little longer to dissolve. You may enjoy using more or less sugar, depending on your taste.

My Mother's favorite saying: Now Mine Also!!!!!!

I shall pass through this world but once. Any good therefore, that I can do, or any kindness that I can show to any human being let me do it now. Let me not defer or neglect, for I shall not pass this way again.
