I just poured all the things together without measuring… still tasted fine, lol!
So good! Made it for a BBQ and everyone loved it! Will make again for sure! 😍
This lemonade is amazing! Refreshing and just the right amount of sweetness. Will make again!
Yum! But my friend said tamarind is poisonous – is that true????
Minty and tangy! Perfect thirst quencher on hot days. Gonna serve this at my next party!
I don’t know, the recipe seems a bit weird to me. Mint and tamarind? Doesn’t sound right!
Quick and easy! I didn’t have mint, but it was still yummy!
But isn’t the mint the best part? How can you call it tamarind lemonade without mint? 🤔
Glad you enjoyed it! I never have mint either, works out fine without it.
Too sweet for my taste. I think I added too much sugar. Next time I’ll cut back.
No way! I thought the sweetness was perfect. What do you expect with lemonade? It needs some sugar!
I totally get you! I found it sweet too. Maybe a half cup of sugar next time?
So complex! Is it really worth making from scratch? LOL
Nah, I think it sounds too complicated. Just buy lemonade from the store! Why bother with this?
I thought the same at first, but it’s surprisingly easy once you get the hang of it! Definitely worth it for the fresh taste! 😊
How long can you keep it? I made a big batch and then read the tamarind goes bad fast.
Lemonade is for kids. I drink coffee! 😒
Mint and tamarind together? Sounds weird. Not my cup of tea. 😒
I was skeptical about tamarind in lemonade, but it was surprisingly good. My kids even loved it!
This is the best lemonade I’ve ever made! So refreshing!
Tamarind? Never heard of it! What is this ingredient? Can I use regular lemon instead? 🤔
I don’t know, the tamarind was a bit too strange for me. I prefer regular lemonade.
This is the best lemonade I’ve ever tasted! It’s so refreshing and perfect for summer.
I tried making this but it was way too sour for me. Might need to add more sugar next time.
Tasted fantastic! Perfect for summer days. Will make again!
Yum! Love the mint in this recipe. My family enjoyed it a lot during our BBQ!
