Makrut Lime Lemonade

With these hot summer days and nights that we have been having, cool down with a glass of home-made lemonade...with a twist of course. This recipe uses Makrut lime leaves to add a unique lime flavour to the syrup. Great used with cocktails too!

Ingredients

2 cups water

1 cup sugar

10 Makrut lime leaves

1/2 cup fresh lime or lemon juice

2 cups soda water

Method

  • In a small saucepan combine the water, sugar and lime leaves over a medium heat. 
  • Bring to the boil, lower heat and simmer for 10 minutes. Set aside to cool and then refrigerate until cold.
  • Remove the lime leaves. Fill each of 4 glasses with 1/2 cup of syrup, 2 tablespoons of lime or lemon juice and 1/2 cup soda water. Stir, add ice and serve.
