Chef's Tips
- Chilling Tip: For an extra refreshing drink, chill the glasses in the freezer before serving.
- Sweetness Adjustment: Adjust the amount of honey based on your preference for sweetness.
- Mint Substitute: If you don’t have fresh mint, you can use a few drops of mint extract instead.
- Sparkling Variation: Replace cold water with sparkling water for a fizzy version.
- Storage: Store any leftovers in the fridge for up to 24 hours. Shake well before serving again.
