Instructions

  3. Mix Flavors: Stir in the fresh lime juice and gently crush the fresh mint leaves before adding them to the juice to release their aromatic flavor.
  4. Strain Juice: Use a fine strainer or cheesecloth to strain the liquid, removing any pulp or fibrous residue, resulting in a smooth juice consistency.

  • Consume immediately or within a few hours of preparation for optimal freshness and taste.
  • Adjust lime juice quantity based on desired tartness.
