Ingredients:
1-1/2 cups freshly squeezed lime juice (about six limes)
4 cups cold water
1-1/2 cups measurable sweetener of choice
Ice cubes
Six lime slice twists
Six mint sprigs
Directions:
Mix lime juice, water and sweetener; refrigerate until chilled. Serve over ice in tall glasses; garnish with lime slice twists and mint.
Note: Limeade can be frozen in ice cube trays; the cubes can be used with the limeade so it will not be diluted. Also, the ice cubes can be processed in a blender or food processor to make a delicious lime slush.
Recipe makes six (8-ounce) servings.
