Description
Mint Lemon Juice is a bright, cooling beverage with a refreshing herbal–citrus flavor. The mint provides a cooling sensation and digestive comfort, while lemon adds a tangy, vitamin-rich boost. It’s great for hot days, after exercise, or with meals.
Recipe Notes
Use lime instead of lemon for a stronger tang.
Adding ginger gives it a digestive boost.
Reduce or skip sweetener for a low-calorie option.
For a sparkling version: use chilled soda water.
Best consumed fresh; mint oxidizes after a few hours.
Tips
Rub the mint leaves between your palms before blending to release essential oils.
If serving guests, freeze mint leaves inside ice cubes for a beautiful look.
Use raw honey for a smoother flavor.
Add cucumber slices to make it extra hydrating.
