On a sweltering day in central Taiwan, I tasted the most refreshing drink I've ever had.

In the heat of the afternoon, it was exactly the kind of relief I sought.

If you can't find limequats, you can make this drink with a combination of limes and kumquats — or you can buy a limequat tree at Amazon.com.
