- Prepare Ice: Ensure you have ice ready by filling 1-2 glasses with water, placing them in a double ziplock bag, sealing it tightly, and laying it horizontally in the freezer.
- Grate Lemons: Grate the lemon peels carefully, avoiding the white parts. This recipe makes 1 liter of cool lime drink.
- Mix Ingredients: In a bowl, combine the grated lemon peel, mint leaves, and sugar. Rub the mixture with your hands for 2-3 minutes to release the aromas. Then, add cold water and freshly squeezed lemon juice, stirring until the sugar dissolves.

FAQS-TIPS
How do you Juice a lime?
Using a Fork or Spoon:
- Roll and cut the lime in half.
- Insert a fork or spoon into the lime and twist while squeezing to extract the juice.
Using a Citrus Juicer:
- Cut the lime in half.
- Place the lime halves in a citrus juicer with the cut side down.
- Press to extract the juice.
By Hand:
- Roll the lime on a countertop to loosen the juice.
- Optionally, microwave it for 15-20 seconds to make juicing easier.
- Cut the lime in half lengthwise.
- Squeeze the juice into a bowl using your hands or a fork to extract more juice.
Here are some tips to maximize the juice you can extract from a lime:
Roll: Before juicing, roll the lime firmly on the countertop using your palm. This helps to break up the membranes inside the lime, making it easier to squeeze out more juice.
Microwave: Heating the lime in the microwave for 15-20 seconds can make it easier to extract more juice, as the warmth helps to loosen the juice inside.
Store in the Fridge: Keeping limes refrigerated helps to maintain their juiciness and freshness.
