- 4 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 cup still water
- 3 cups sparkling water
- 1 cup ice cubes
- 10 pieces fresh mint leaves
- 3 pieces lemon slices
Instructions
Wash the lemons thoroughly and roll them on a countertop to release the juices.
Cut the lemons in half and juice them using a citrus juicer. You should yield approximately 1/2 cup of fresh lemon juice.
In a small mixing bowl, combine the lemon juice and granulated sugar. Stir well until the sugar completely dissolves.
In a large pitcher, add the lemon juice mixture and still water. Stir to combine.
Slowly pour in the sparkling water and gently stir to maintain the carbonation.
Add the ice cubes to the pitcher to keep the cooler chilled.
Tear or lightly crush the mint leaves to release their aroma, then add them to the pitcher.
Garnish with lemon slices and give the cooler a final stir.
Serve immediately in chilled glasses for maximum refreshment.
