Method

Lemonade Preparation

  1. 1

    Juicing the Lemons

    Roll the lemons on a flat surface to soften them, then cut them in half. Use a juicer or your hands to extract the juice into a measuring cup, discarding the seeds.

  2. 2

    Making the Lemonade

    In a pitcher, combine the freshly squeezed lemon juice, granulated sugar, and 4 cups of water. Stir well until the sugar is fully dissolved. Taste and adjust sweetness by adding more sugar if desired.

  3. 3

    Chilling the Lemonade

    Refrigerate the lemonade for at least 30 minutes to chill. If you're short on time, you can add ice cubes directly to the pitcher.

Cocktail Assembly

  1. 4

    Mixing the Cocktail

    In a large pitcher, combine the chilled lemonade, 1 cup of vodka, and 2 cups of club soda. Stir gently to mix the ingredients without losing carbonation.

  2. 5

    Adding Mint

    Lightly bruise the fresh mint leaves by placing them in your palm and giving them a gentle clap. Add the bruised mint to the cocktail mixture and stir.

  3. 6

    Serving the Cocktails

    Fill glasses with ice cubes and pour the lemonade cocktail over the ice. Garnish with lemon slices and mint sprigs before serving.
