Calories 57kcal
Ingredients
- 4 cups of water
- juice of 2 limes
- a handful of ice cubes
- 3 sprigs of mint leaves or
- sweetener of your choice optional
- Extra slices of lime
Instructions
- Place the slices of lime and sprigs of mint into a glass pitcher (jug)
- Pour the lime juice, water and sweetener of your choice (if using) into your blender and pulse
- Add the ice cubes and pulse for 10 seconds, you want the ice to crush not blend completely, just a few seconds are suffice to do so, depending on the speed of the blender
- Transfer the ice water into the pitcher.
- Serve immediately or for a deeper flavour leave to rest for up to 30 minutes then serve
Notes
- Adding any type of sweetener is an optional step, you don't have to if you don't want to.
- Additional mint leaves and lime will fully enhance the fruit/mint flavour.
- You DO NOT have to crush the ice in the blender. You are more than welcome to distribute the ice cubes into separate glasses.
- Top up. Once the water has been drunk, feel free to top up the pitcher with more water and a squeeze of time
