Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Citrus

    Peel and segment the oranges, ensuring to remove any seeds. Squeeze the juice from the lemons and limes into a bowl, discarding any seeds.

  2. 2

    Mix Ingredients

    In a large pitcher, combine the orange segments, lemon juice, and lime juice. Stir gently to combine.

  3. 3

    Add Sweeteners

    Add the honey and sugar to the pitcher. Stir until the sweeteners are completely dissolved.

  4. 4

    Infuse with Mint

    Tear the fresh mint leaves slightly and add them to the pitcher. This will help release their flavor into the drink.

  5. 5

    Add Water

    Pour in the water and stir well to combine all ingredients. Adjust sweetness if necessary.

Chilling

  1. 6

    Chill the Mixture

    Cover the pitcher and place it in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

  2. 7

    Serve

    Serve the citrus drink over ice in glasses. Garnish with additional mint leaves if desired.
