Recipe from: Melissa at The Family Voyage

Recipe Description: Limonana is a beautifully simple combination of ice cold lemonade (“limon“) and fresh mint (“nana“). You’ll find it all over Israel all summer long, but it’s the perfect refreshing drink wherever you find yourself.

Ingredients: Makes 2 servings
