Citrus Drink Ingredients
Method
Citrus Drink Preparation
- 1
Juicing the Citrus Fruits
Begin by juicing the fresh oranges, lemon, and lime. You should have approximately 2 cups of orange juice, 1 cup of lemon juice, and 1 cup of lime juice. If you prefer a pulp-free drink, strain the juices through a fine mesh sieve.

Mixing the Juices
In a large pitcher, combine the freshly squeezed orange juice, lemon juice, and lime juice. Stir well to ensure that the flavors are blended thoroughly.

Adding Sparkling Water
Slowly pour in the sparkling water to the pitcher with the citrus juice mixture. Stir gently to combine, being careful not to lose the carbonation.

Incorporating Mint
Add the fresh mint leaves to the pitcher. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently press the mint leaves against the side of the pitcher to release their aroma and flavor.

Sweetening the Drink
Taste the mixture and add stevia or your preferred zero-calorie sweetener to achieve the desired sweetness. Stir well to dissolve the sweetener completely.

Serving the Drink
