Limeade with Smoked Ice Cubes, Edible Flowers, and Grilled lime slices
Description
Limeade has been a favorite of mine ever since the days of going to Sonic at 2 am. Currently I have a slightly more refined pallet but was still all to happy to create a fun spin on a summer favorite.
Also, smoked ice cubes infused with edible flowers, are you kidding me? How could I not?
