Custom menu adapter for navDrawer?

Question

I'm developing an app using the official android NavigationDrawer, the navDrawer has its own menu xml called activity_main_drawer.xml in the picture below:

This is it in the app:

Now i want to change the titles and icons for each row dynamically (JSON), I know how to make a custom ListView Adapter but i couldn't know how to make a custom menu adapter for this navDrawer. It's not a ListView, it's a menu and has groups and items.

Any help is very appreciated.

You need to add menu items dynamically like below:

Menu menu = nvDrawer.getMenu();
        for (MenuItem mi : menu.values()) {
            if (menu.size() == 0) {
               menu.add(mi.getId() + "");
            }
            if (menu.getItem(mi.getId()) == null) {
                menu.add(mi.getId() + "");
            }
            MenuItem mi = menu.getItem(mi.getId());
            mi.setIcon(mi.getIcon());
            mi.setTitle(mi.getTittle());
        }
