This turned out very well for us. We liked it better than our regular lemonade. We did a little over 1/2 batch and used 5/8 tsp stevia. I have a spearmint plant that I put in this year, and since 1/2 bunch is kind of hard to gage, I started out with with 2 stems and it was just right for us. I wanted to mince them fine, so I put it all (except lemon slices) in the blender and blended for a bit, then let it chill for a couple hours, then strained the mint. We don't like chunks. We will make this again, as we make lemonade a lot (we can't have milk right now).

I live in Australia, in the Blue Mountains (a national park the size of Belgium) and I really enjoy all things to do with food (especially the eating part). I used to work in theatre and casting in the UK, but now work in an antique/discerning junk shop in Australia. I enjoy collecting out of print and old church cook books and have way too many. I can't stand bad traffic, people who sniff, or white plastic garden furniture! If I had a month off I would most likely be asleep a lot of the time or eating dark chocolate, but If I had absolutely no responsibilities, you could find me at the Musee D'Orsay in Paris looking at the pictures.
