Frozen Mint Lemonade, also called Limonana (a Middle Eastern Frozen Mint Lemonade) is one of the MOST refreshing drinks of the Summer months. If it's hot and you need to cool down fast with a sweet and sour, frozen drink - this is it! (1-2 servings, vegan, gluten-free)
Hey Everyone, when I find something good, I need to share about it.
I just can't hold back.
That's why I need to share about this Frozen Mint Lemonade, also called Limonana.
I first found out about Frozen Mint Lemonade or Limonana when I visited Reading Terminal Market in Philadelphia a few times last Summer when our French cousin Lucile & my parents visited.
This is my attempt at recreating the yummy, refreshing drink we had there using mint (regular or spearmint) from my garden.
The definition of "Limonana" is (source):
Limonana (Arabic: ليمون نعناع; Hebrew: לימונענע) is a type of lemonade made from freshly-squeezed lemon juice and spearmint leaves that forms a popular summer drink in Egypt, Israel, Cyprus, Jordan, Lebanon, and Syria
Limonana is a portmanteau of the Arabic and Hebrew words limon (Arabic: ليمون, Hebrew: לימון, meaning lemon) and nana (Arabic: نعناع, Hebrew: נענע, meaning mint),[1] referring to its two main ingredients, freshly-squeezed lemon juice and spearmint leaves.
I actually developed the recipe and took these photos in August 2017 and I never got the recipe onto the blog because those Fall recipes had rolled around.
Well, not that it's officially Summer, I had to finally share this Frozen Mint Lemonade with you, sorry it took only 10 months, lol!

Delicious. I used a tablespoon of sugar instead of syrup as I didn’t have any and it was beautifully refreshing.
