Thanks so much to those who PM'd me this recipe.

This is a really unusual but DELICIOUS drink. Adding the rosewater makes it really fragrant and beautiful, and the lemon, lime and mint give a real tang. I am not sure that little kids would go for it, because it is a bit different - but as an adult drink it is gorgeous on its own, or else would also be great with gin or maybe even midori added to it

My only tweak would be to reduce the rosewater initially, and then add more if you want to. I only used 2/3 of a teaspoon, and it was quite strong enough. The 2-3 teaspoons recommended would be way over the top!

Score: 4/5

Made this last night to drink today. Last night it was delicious, but today it was quite bitter and tart. I would suggest that if you are going to make it, drink it on the same day.

Hi KHJ - I made some yesterday and it still tastes fine today. Maybe depends on how thick the pith is on the lemons and limes?? I agree with you about the rosewater - I used one tsp and that was enough for my tastes.

I really like the sound of this. Where can one get a copy of the calendar to get hold of the recipe?

Thanks

Morte if the calendar is still available ask your consultant or email HO. Otherwise I'm sure it can be pm'd to you.

Hopefully I'm also picking up a copy of the calendar if my consultant can locate one for me.

Thanks for that thought, but I had one personally delivered by my consultant today, and I'm very impressed. Well worth the buy!
