liquid diet

January 22, 2010


The sticky, hot air in San Juan Del Sur had us drinking like fish. Thankfully, the bottled water was cheap and we consumed several litres a day. Although, agua pura does the job of quenching our thirst, it does get boring and we started searching for other liquid refreshments. The Bambu Beach Club serves a variety of different flavored lemonades that had us coming back almost daily. Strawberry, Mango, Peach... we wished we were there longer just to sample all the flavors. The best one? Mint. When I'm done traveling, I've decided that I'm going to have fresh mint on hand, in the kitchen, at all times. Try it in your next lemonade, it's amazing.

That looks fucking nasty, but I'll try it.

I put mint in everything in the summertime. You can find it in any ditch between Toronto and Algonquin Park.

In lemonade is so good.
In a gin and tonic.
In, obviously, a mojito.
MmMmmMmmM!

Trader Joes Limeade + mint (and rum if desired) is one of my favorite for the summer :)

This is wonderful! I found your blog a few months ago and am so glad that I keep checking in on it because your adventures have just hit the familiar! I was in San Juan del Sur just over a week ago! I sat on the outdoor beach chairs of the very same Bambu Beach Club and drank mojitos. I was scheduled to do a Canopy tour with Flying Frog but had to back out at the last minute. So wonderful to hear that you two are enjoying yourselves in such a beautiful place! Thanks for posting! :-)

Lemonade is by far my #1 drink. You just made me very jealous. Anyhow, your mint tip is noted!

Mint grows like a weed once you get it started. Cheers!
