This drink can be made ahead of time and stored in a cooler or in the freezer of your RV until happy hour. We like to tie up the mint in a cheesecloth before putting in in the ziplock to keep bits of mint from floating around in your drink and ending up in your straw.

1 cup mint leaf
1 (12 ounce) can limeade
3 cups water
