Mint Lemonade

Today the weather is not cooperating. It is raining, my feet are cold and even the tip of my nose is cold. Brrrr. But I thought why not try and pretend it is summer by creating the most delicious summer taste. Lemonade. I love it, adore it even, if that is even possible. I try to avoid everything processed so thought I would challenge my Vitamix (my blender) and see if it could deliver. Boy did it deliver! Try this if you like something summery in your fridge!

Jo´s Lemonade

Ingredients
3 Cups Water (filtered of course)
1/4 Cup Agave Syrup (because you need something sweet )
1 1/2 Lemons, peeled and deseeded although the seeds are ok if you have a powerful blender
Large handful mint leaves.
1 Cup Ice cubes. 

Add the ingredients into the blender/ Vitamix in the listed order. Then blast away till it is completely combined. Add more or less lemon/ mint if you think you need it. I added more Mint to mine, hence why it is green. 

Keeps well in the fridge for a few days! Also works amazing as a cocktail mixer!
