Nam Manao is a refreshing Thai limeade that balances sweet, sour and a hint of salt. It is just the thing on a hot day. You make it from freshly squeezed limes, sugar and water, and Thai vendors often add salt and sometimes mint for extra freshness.
Ingredients
- 4 fresh limes
- 2-3 tbsp sugar
- 600 ml (2 1/2 cups) water
- 1 pinch salt (optional)
- Ice cubes
- Fresh mint leaves (optional)
Instructions
- Wash the limes well and cut them in half.
- Squeeze the juice into a large bowl or pitcher.
- Add the sugar and a pinch of salt to the lime juice and stir until the sugar has dissolved.
- Add the water and stir again.
- Taste the limeade and add more sugar or lime juice until the balance suits you.
- Fill glasses with ice cubes and pour the limeade over the ice.
- Garnish each glass with a sprig of fresh mint, if using.
