Preparation
1. Juicing the Lemons
Roll the fresh lemons on a counter to soften them, then cut them in half. Use a citrus juicer or a fork to extract juice from the lemons. Strain the juice to remove any seeds or pulp.
2. Preparing the Mint
Rinse the fresh mint leaves under cold water to clean them. Gently pat them dry with a paper towel.
3. Making the Sugar Syrup
In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup of water and the granulated sugar. Heat over medium heat, stirring until the sugar is completely dissolved. Remove from heat and let cool.
Mixing
4. Combining Ingredients
In a large pitcher, combine the lemon juice, the cooled sugar syrup, and the remaining 3 cups of water. Stir well to mix all the ingredients.
5. Adding Mint
Add the fresh mint leaves to the pitcher and stir gently to infuse the mint flavor into the lemonade.
