Juicing the Lemons

3
Combining Ingredients
In a large pitcher, combine the fresh lemon juice and simple syrup. Stir well to blend.
4
Adding Sparkling Water
Slowly pour in the sparkling water while stirring gently to mix without losing carbonation.

Infusing Mint
Add the fresh mint leaves to the pitcher and gently muddle with a wooden spoon to release their flavor.

Add the sliced cucumber and lemon to the pitcher. Stir to combine all ingredients.
