Today I wanted to share a very easy drink that is well suited for summer days which is the Mint Lemon Juice. It’s satisfactory, light, zesty, and doesn’t tarnish the balance of sweet and sour at all. The ingredients used are simple, and the methods also are very simple and thus, the recipe is perfect for anyone since they can prepare it very fast. Let’s dive in!

Ingredients I used:

🔹Fresh mint leaves

🔹Lemon juice

🔹Black salt

🔹Sugar (to taste)

🔹Roasted Cumin powder

🔹Cold water

Step-by-Step Instructions

Prepare the Blender

First, I placed the cold tasting tablespoon water in three glasses and poured it into a blender jar. If cold water is used to prepare the drink the moment after, it becomes extremely refreshing especially during hot weather.

Add Fresh Mint Leaves

I then threw a cup of fresh mint leaves into the blender. These leaves bring a cool flavor and a green color into the juice.

Squeeze in Lemon Juice

Then added freshly extracted lemon juice to the mixture. Sugar is surprisingly tasty in this dish simply because it complements the tartness of the lemon and the juice perfectly.

Sweeten to Taste

I put sugar, then increased its proportion based on my preferences. You can put a more or less of each ingredient as per your preference of how sweet you want your drink to be.

Black Salt and Sprinkle powdered Cumin on it

Then, I added a pinch of black salt and a pinch of cumin powder. These condiments brings the juice a totally unique, savory taste that blends well with the sourness of the lemon and the favored taste of the mint.

Blend It All Together

I gently stirred the ingredients together until the mint leaves had completely been ground and the sugar was dissolved. This was a nice touch because the smell of the mint and lemon could not be resisted! As I was preparing the juice I added sugar and stirred and tasted the juice to ensure the sugar had blended well. It tasted just right —the sweetness of sugar balance by the sour from vinegar and the hint of saltiness.

Serve and Enjoy

The Mint Lemon Juice kind made! I poured it into glasses and it looked so fresh even to the eye. The taste was totally great and I can easily say that it was so good for a summer drinking.

This Mint Lemon Juice is equally simple to make yet filled with energizing and vibrant taste. I specifically enjoy the cooperation of mint with lemon and the addition of black salt and roasted cumin is quite different. What a great summer drink and I’m sure everyone will enjoy it!
