    Prepare the Lemonade Base

    In a large pitcher, combine the water, lemon juice, and sugar. Stir well until the sugar is completely dissolved.

    Add fresh mint leaves to the pitcher. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently press the mint leaves to release their flavor.

  3. 3

    Chill the Beverage

    Refrigerate the mixture for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Serve the lemonade over ice cubes in glasses. Garnish with additional mint leaves or lemon slices if desired.
