The ginger mint lemonade is very easy make and a great refreshing drink.

Quick to make, lovely taste and very healthy:

Blended with sparkling or still water over ice
The ginger, mint and honey all have unique benefits.

Both fresh mint and ginger have a lovely taste when combined with water. The recipe below shows how to use it to make a ginger mint lemonade – but in addition the honey adds a lovely sweet flavour.

2 items that make a difference to Ginger Mint Lemonade

1. The type of fresh mint you use

Fresh mint makes a real flavour difference to many recipes, like the ginger mint lemonade recipe.

You can buy fresh mint in shops but there are many different mint types.

Each with a unique flavour (Orange mint, Spearmint, Apple Mint, etc.) and will make a real difference to your lemonade.

Mint is very easy to grow at home. If you want to grow your own mint at home then all you need is a plug plant and a pot.

2. A drinks dispenser

When blending (& serving) the lemonade I’ve found a drinks dispenser with a tap very useful.

Drinks dispensers come in different sizes and shapes.

For example the one on the right is 3.5 Litres and contains a steel tap which makes serving drinks very easy.
