Tips for Mint And Orange Drink Recipe

1. Blend Mint Just Before Use

Blend the chopped mint leaves right before preparing the drink so they don’t discolour and lose freshness.

2. Keep the Mint Coarse

Blend the mint mixture coarsely rather than into a fine paste this gives a better mouthfeel in the drink.

3. Always Use Chilled Soda

Make sure the soda (club soda or fizzy water) is well chilled before adding so the drink stays fizzy.

4. Serve Immediately After Mixing

Once soda is added, serve the drink immediately to retain maximum fizz and freshness.

5. Swap Soda With Lemon-Flavored Water

You can replace the soda with any lemon-flavoured aerated water like Sprite, 7Up or lemonade for a slightly different taste.

6. Choose Fresh Mint Leaves

Select fresh, bright green and tender mint (pudina) leaves for best flavour avoid wilted or yellowish ones.

7. Wash and Trim Properly

Before using, wash the mint leaves well to remove dirt, and trim off thick stems to keep the drink clean and pleasant.

8. Adjust Sweetness to Taste

The recipe uses powdered sugar, but you can adjust the sweetness based on your preference or substitute with simple syrup.

9. Add Lemon Juice for Tang

Adding fresh lemon juice enhances the citrus flavour you can slightly increase it if you prefer tangier drinks.

10. Garnish for Presentation

Garnish with a sprig of mint or a slice of orange to make the drink look more appealing and enhance aroma. (General tip based on mocktail practices)
