### Lemon Granizado (Iced Drink) – Spanish Drink
Lemon is perfect for fighting high blood pressure due to its high potassium and low sodium content. This drink is not only great for your 4th of July celebration but also beneficial for your health!
**Ingredients:**

### Tea Granizado (Iced Tea)
I love using green tea for this recipe! There are 3,000 varieties of tea, all from the Camellia sinensis evergreen plant. This drink has antioxidant properties, dental protection, and antibacterial action. The Vitamin B complex also helps metabolize carbohydrates and lower blood sugar levels, making it suitable for diabetics.

**Instructions:**
1. Boil water in a saucepan. Once it starts boiling, add the sugar, dissolve well, and remove from heat.

3. Pour the liquid into an ice bucket and freeze.
4. Once frozen, grind the cubes to make a slush and serve immediately.
### Fruit Mix Frappé
This iced drink uses strawberries, which are great for heart health and have anti-inflammatory effects. It’s perfect for those with muscle problems.
**Ingredients:**
