Limonana is the frozen mint lemonade you get everywhere in Israel, and it is four things in a blender: lemon juice, fresh mint, water and crushed ice. Maple syrup is optional, and we make ours barely sweet. Pulse it rather than blending it. Run the blender too long and the mint goes bitter and the ice turns to water.

Process

Cook Mode

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results

In a high speed blender, pulse all ingredients together. Be sure not to over blend as that will create a smoothie rather than a slushie. Enjoy right away, otherwise the slush will melt and become watery.
Note: these measurements can all be adjusted to your liking. To make it sweeter, add more maple syrup. To make it more tart, add extra lemons. To make it more slush-like, add more ice.
