Let's make something good
How to make it
4 steps. Take it one step at a time.
Squeeze the juice from the 4 lemons
Squeeze the juice from the 4 lemons into a small bowl, ensuring no seeds fall in.
Combine 1/2 cup of sugar
In a large pitcher, combine 1/2 cup (100g) of sugar with a small amount of warm water (about 100ml). Stir vigorously until the sugar is completely dissolved to create a simple syrup base.
Pour the lemon juice and the remaining cold water
Pour the lemon juice and the remaining cold water into the pitcher. Stir well to combine.
Add fresh mint leaves and ice cubes
Add fresh mint leaves and ice cubes. Let it sit for 5 minutes to allow the mint to infuse slightly before serving.

A little kitchen wisdom
In Eastern Europe, it is very common to substitute sugar with raw honey. You can also add a few slices of lemon directly into the pitcher for a more intense citrus aroma.
