Lemon Mint Ice Cubes

Sweltering, scorching, baking, roasting, sizzling, blistering HEAT!!!

PAGASA has just announced that SUMMER (March to May) is officially here in the Philippines, the end of the cool Northeast Moonsoon (amihan) and the start of the hot-dry-humid season.

And yes, so true, people are so complaining about the heat shouting out in all the social network sites.

So, how to beat the heat?

Here’s my own little contribution to the many things you can do:

Make your own homemade lemon-mint ice cubes:

Simple.  Just put slices of lemon and crushed mint leaves in your ice cube trays and freeze, of course, then drop them into a glass of your favorite drink and VOILA!

what a quencher!

Don’t forget to innovate though, you can do a lot of things with your ice cubes.
