This is the drink Mary Murray said she would help make a huge batch for when I got married. We didn't have it, but it made an appearance at book club one time.
2 c. mint leaves, packed
2 c. water
12 oz. can frozen lemonade
1 qt. ginger ale
Bring leaves, stems and water to a boil. Bruise with a potato masher. Let sit several hours or overnight. Strain, add lemonade, and 3 lemonade cans of water; stir. Add ginger ale. Mix well.
I love this drink. It might be an acquired taste. The ladies in book club said it was different, but good.
Is it a spin on a mint julep?
ReplyDeleteCan I make it up to you? I'll whip it up on your next visit! Speaking of receptions, I love the fajita pasta salad from yours...I make it every time the teachers have a potluck at school.
