How to Make the Lemon Mint Drink
Step-by-Step Instructions:
Prepare the Lemons: Wash the lemons thoroughly. Cut two lemons into thin slices and juice the third lemon.
Crush the Mint: In a pitcher, add the fresh mint leaves. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently crush the mint. This helps release the natural oils and enhances the flavor of the drink.
Combine Ingredients: Add the lemon slices and lemon juice to the pitcher. Pour in the cold water.
Sweeten: If you prefer a sweeter drink, add honey or a natural sweetener to taste. Stir well to ensure it’s fully dissolved.
Chill and Serve: Add ice cubes to the pitcher if desired. Let the drink sit for a few minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Serve cold in glasses garnished with extra mint leaves or lemon slices.
