Fresh Homemade Lemon Limeade

Fresh Homemade Lemon Limeade is one of my personal favorites, especially on a hot summer's day. This recipe is made for entertaining, but can always be scaled back. One of the many benefits of summer is that the citrus are juicy and extra-large in size, due to the fact that they are in season. The sliced limes and the fresh mint add so much flavor to this drink. It amazes me, every time I serve it I will have kids ask me, "Is this homemade? It is so good, what's in it? I want my Mom to make this." I tell them it is fresh lemons and limes and I add fresh mint from my garden. Truly, it is the mint, just a little of this herb goes a long way. If you have the time allow this to set-up for a few hours, so that the mint, lemon and lime juice can completely marry. This recipe makes for some an awesome drink when entertaining. And there is nothing like a fresh made class of lemon limeade on a hot summer's day! Mint is so good for you, it helps aid in digestion and is a great palate cleanser. It also helps reduce inflammation in the body and helps relieve upset stomach. It also aids in bad breathe. Not bad for a great summer's drink!
