This is my favorite cocktail they serve here: raspberry mint lemonade. It’s like a non-alcoholic mojito. We are improving the image of Russian-speakers everywhere by showing very scarce interest towards alcohol.
When I first started dating a Russian person, a friend of mine asked me what he drank.
“He never drinks alcohol,” I said.
“Oh, I get it, he’s in AA,” my friend immediately responded. The idea of a Russian person who doesn’t drink simply because he doesn’t feel like it was alien to him.

yum that looks delicious 🙂 Enjoy

Looks good. I think if the mint leaves were crushed it might’ve tasted even better!

I’ve become fond of this – http://www.synergydrinks.com/kombucha_gingerade.aspx# and thought it was no problem – little sugar, few calories, natural vitamins, etc. – then realized that if I drink it at two meals a day it will cost me $50 per week.
Your drink suggests I could make mint lemonade, just not as sweet as a restaurant / bar / store would. I’ll try it.
