Refreshing citrus drink in minutes!!!

Make a wonderful and refreshing citrus drink in minutes! I found a citrus drink recipe on FB. This would be a great drink for the hot days.  I made in one mason jar. After waiting for a several hours, the drink is refreshing but I think it is not sweet enough. I would not mind but I know hubby would add a little sugar to it.. hehehe.

Cut each fruit into ¼ slices and remove seeds. Using a Mason jar, add the above and slightly crush them using the end of a utensil but do not pulverize. Add ice and fill container, then fill with fresh water and let stand for a few hours in the fridge.

You'll need:

Dissolved the a little bit of sugar with some hot water in a separate glass to make the sugar syrup.  In the jug, add sour plums, slices of lime and sugar syrup or honey. Pour the boiling water in the jug and just let it brew...

This is a popular fruit juice/dessert in Indonesia. You could get this avocado blended in any Indonesian restaurant.
