Outbrain
the lemon cooler is very refreshing. the rose water and the mint leaves gives it the correct flavour. also if the drink is too lemony one can increase the amount of sugar init .
At first I though how different could lemon cooler be from our very own nimbu paani! But it is so much more than that! I loved the rose-lemon-mint combo!
