I may have mentioned this before, but, if not, there’s some mint taking over a corner of my yard. And, thus, it is best if I mix drinks which contain mint. This was mixed for D. after No. 1 Son‘s birthday party.
Mint Lemonade
In a mixing glass, muddle eight mint leaves with the juice of one lemon (about 2 oz.) and a teaspoon of honey. Fill a tall glass half full with ice. Strain the juice and mint into the glass, and top with seltzer, about eight ounces. Garnish with a sprig of mint.
Alternately, muddle the ingredients in the tall glass itself, and allow the crushed mint to be the garnish.
