Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Juicing the Lemons

    Roll the lemons on a countertop to soften them. Cut each lemon in half and juice them using a citrus juicer or reamer until you have about 1 cup of lemon juice.

  2. 2

    Making the Sugar Syrup

    In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup of water and 1 cup of granulated sugar. Heat over medium heat, stirring until the sugar has completely dissolved. Remove from heat and let it cool.

  3. 3

    Combining Ingredients

    In a large pitcher, combine the fresh lemon juice, the sugar syrup, and the remaining 3 cups of cold water. Stir well until fully mixed.

  4. 4

    Serving

    Fill glasses with ice cubes and pour the lemonade over the ice. Garnish with fresh mint leaves. Serve immediately.
