Fresh mint gives this cooler its brightest, coolest flavor. Choose vibrant green leaves, separate them from the stems, and rinse thoroughly 2-3 times before using. If fresh mint isn't available, homemade dried mint can be used as a backup.
Lemon adds a bright, tangy lift that enhances all the flavors in the drink. Freshly squeezed lemon juice is best for maximum freshness and taste.
