Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 whole lemons
- 6 cups cold water
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar (optional)
- 1 cup ice cubes
- 6 leaves mint leaves (optional)
Instructions
Wash the lemons thoroughly under cool running water to remove any dirt or residue.
Slice 2 lemons in half and juice them using a manual or electric juicer. You should have approximately 1/2 cup of fresh lemon juice.
Thinly slice the remaining 2 lemons into rounds and set them aside for garnish.
In a large pitcher, combine the fresh lemon juice, cold water, and granulated sugar (if using). Stir well until the sugar has dissolved completely.
Add the ice cubes to the pitcher and gently stir again to chill the lemon water.
For a touch of freshness, add mint leaves and the lemon slices to the pitcher as garnish.
Taste the agua limón and adjust the sweetness or tartness by adding more sugar or lemon juice, if desired.
Serve immediately in glasses filled with additional ice, garnished with a lemon slice and mint leaf, if preferred.
