Mint infused lemonade “Limonana” is the ultimate exotic summertime drink!
This drink is screaming summertime and granted its almost October, but in Southern California its still in the 80s so I think its appropriate to make and drink this! But truth be told, I actually make this drink in the wintertime too, those days when I’m craving summer. The original Lemon & Mint (laymoon ou na’ na’) drink is basically just lemons and a ton of mint but we decided to go a step further and add watermelon which also tasted amazing.
Happy summer in October =)
This drink is so full of flavor and summertime fun on its own with just the mint and lemons but if you want to go a step further and make it even funner you can add watermelon, blueberries or any other fun fruit you want!
