Failing to strain out the spent rinds and mint leaves results in a swampy, pulpy sludge that will instantly offend the palates of your esteemed guests.

Beverage Integrity Protocol
Storage Science
Store in a tightly sealed glass container in the refrigerator to prevent the absorption of ambient odors. Consume within 2-3 days. If it contains dairy, consume within 48 hours.
Reheating Science
If this is a hot beverage, reheat gently on the stovetop without bringing it to a rolling boil, which can scorch sugars and scald dairy proteins.
