When I was young, my mom used to prepare lime juice with lemon, water, sugar and salt. Also if anyone visit our place she does this with no time because its the simple ingredients that we usually have at home. That is the real flavour of lime juice and its soo simple and can be prepared at any time. But these days we get readymade lemonade juice or concentrate where people drink rather than squeezing a lime. Me too among them. I buy lemonade and to make it more flavourful and fresh I add mint leaves. I love the sweetness and the tangy flavour. Its the unbelievable refreshing that I can't stop drinking it.
INGREDIENTS.
1 cup Lemonade juice.
Sugar ( optional)
6 to 7 Mint leaves.
Ice cubes.
2 tbsp Water.
GARNISH.
Mint stem.
METHOD.
In a steel glass add mint leaves , and water. Crush them with a wooden stick till all the minty flavour comes out of the leaf. Strain them. Its ok if there are small bits of leaves. Add lemonade and ice cubes. Garnish and serve cold.
Enjoy!!

Lime Juice has always been a favorite.This looks really refreshing. I like fresh lime soda too very much, the soda substituting plain water adds a great punch to the traditional lime juice.
