1
Juicing the Lemons
Roll the lemons on a flat surface to break down the fibers. Cut each lemon in half and use a citrus juicer or your hands to extract the juice into a measuring cup. Strain the juice through a fine mesh sieve to remove seeds and pulp.
2
Mixing the Sugar
In a large pitcher, combine the freshly squeezed lemon juice and granulated sugar. Stir well until the sugar is completely dissolved.
3
Adding Water
Pour in the 4 cups of cold water to the lemon juice and sugar mixture. Stir thoroughly to combine all ingredients. Taste and adjust sweetness by adding more sugar or water as desired.

4
Chilling and Serving
If desired, add ice cubes to the pitcher or individual glasses. Garnish with fresh mint leaves for an added touch. Serve immediately and enjoy your refreshing Minute Maid Lemonade!
