Mint lemonade, prepared Egyptian-style! Intense with flavor, frothy, and extremely refreshing! You'll love this limonana, but there is a small trick that makes all the difference.

Mediterranean-Style Mint Lemonade (Limonana)

water

lemons

lemon

mint

sugar

Add all the ingredients to the pitcher of a high-quality blender. Cover and push blend or liquefy (high-speed function), until you achieve the desired drink consistency.

Taste and add more sugar or mint leaves, if you like. Blend again.

Pour the lemonade into a serving pitcher through a mesh strainer. Add fresh mint leaves to the pitcher. Cover and refrigerate until you are ready to serve.

If you like, strain the lemonade again as you pour into serving glasses. Enjoy cold!

My mouth is watering just reading this and looking at the pics. Now that that the weather is getting hotter, this sounds like perfect comfort drink after a long day.

Just came back from Egypt and had this lemonade at a restaurant in Alexandria.  Loved it!    Have a lot of mint so tried your recipe today.  Delicious!  Thanks for sharing it!

This was really good! My whole family loved it

Best lemonade i have ever had. This was amazing &amp; so simple to make. Thank you for sharing this.

But if the drink sits it gets very very bitter and practically undrinkable because of the white of the skin.

But excellent if you drink immediately.

this recipe tastes even better with a bit of black salt !!

Just like it is in Egypt!! So refreshing.

If at all possible, I think using Meyer lemons and key limes is best because the skins are thinner.

Best lemonade ever!  This was delicious and so easy to make!

Thank you for sharing. I loved this recipe. Just made it and it will definitely be added to my recipes list. 😉

I did a variation of this with 2 cups ice, 2 cups water, 3/4 cup sugar, 6 frozen ice cubes size lemon juice, and 40 mint leaves. Didn't strain it. Tastes exactly like the mint lemonade here in Lebanon. And for a fraction of the cost!

I made it. 
Amazing taste , love the creamy texture it's as if I was drinking sorbet. 
Thank you for sharing the recipe and the tips from the reader's feedback.

One of my most favorite drinks! So refreshing and delicious! Absolutely love this recipe!!! Thank you!
