Naranjade


A revitalising beverage for a summer's day in the Sierra. If you don't have oranges growing on trees in your patio, shop bought ones will do the job just fine.


Enough for 4 thirsty farmers

Two largesprigs of mint – a couple of dozen leaves

Sugar

The juice of six or seven juicy oranges

The juice of one large lemon

Water

Ice


In a large jug, 'muddle' half the mint leaves together with roughly a desert spoonful of sugar, as if you were making a mojito. Juice the oranges and lemons into the jug, and add the same volume of water. Add the remainder of the mint leaves and refrigerate for a couple of hours. Serve in tall glasses over plenty of ice.
