This limeade is addicting and will make your mouth tighten. We like the sour, fresh taste from the citrus and mint, in addition to the fizz from the soda. The base is super-concentrated due to the fact that it gets cooled, then watered down by great deals of ice. This dish becomes part of the Healthyish Farmers’ Market Difficulty
