This beastly weather had me searching for something refreshing but not the same old thing - I think this qualifies! From Better Homes and Gardens, June 2011. Ingredients:
1 cup fresh-squeezed lemon juice |
1/4-1/2 cup sugar |
1/2 cup fresh mint leaves |
1 cup sparkling water |
1 dash ginger ale |
2 -3 cups ice |
1 cup vodka |
4 mint sprigs, for garnish |
4 lemon slices, for garnish |
Directions:
1. Chill four serving glasses in the freezer. 2. Combine the lemon juice, sugar, mint, sparkling mineral water, ginger ale and ice in a blender and blend slowly until it's thick. 3. Remove the glasses from the freezer and pour 1/4 cup vodka into each glass. 4. Top with the frozen lemon mixture. 5. Add a straw and garnish with mint and lemon slice. |
