    About Mint Cooler

    Mint Cooler is a refreshing summer beverage made using fresh mint leaves, lime juice, and chia seeds.

    It comes together in just 5 minutes and is perfect to sip on hot summer days.

    Double or triple the recipe for a bigger crowd and serve it in a pitcher for parties. You can also add a splash of vodka, tequila, or white rum to make an adult version.

    This lime mint cooler is vegan and gluten-free too.

    Ingredients

    Chia Seeds – This superfood is said to have many health benefits, especially in summer. Soak up some and add it to this drink recipe.

    Mint Leaves – Use fresh and green mint leaves, and avoid the blackened ones.

    Lime Juice – Use freshly squeezed lemon juice for the best taste.

    Sugar – Adjust according to your taste. You can also use honey (not vegan) as a healthy alternative to sugar.

    You will also need chilled water and crushed ice. Replace some of the water with coconut water, orange juice, or pineapple juice for a taste change.

    Serving Suggestions

    Mint Cooler is perfect to sip on as a refresher throughout the day on a hot summer day.

    You can also serve it with your everyday summer meals or weekend brunch.

    Make a big pitcher and serve it for your summer parties.

    Storage Suggestions

    It tastes best when made fresh. f you have leftovers, you can store them in the refrigerator for up to a day in an airtight container.
