1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
1/2 cup sugar
1/3 cup packed fresh mint leaves

Tips:

  • Choose the right lemons: Use fresh, ripe lemons for the best flavor. Look for lemons with a deep yellow color and smooth, unblemished skin.
  • Freeze the lemons beforehand: Freezing the lemons before juicing them helps to extract more juice and gives the lemonade a smoother texture.
  • Use a high-powered blender: A high-powered blender will help to break down the frozen lemons and ice more easily, resulting in a smoother lemonade.
  • Add honey or sugar to taste: The amount of honey or sugar you add will depend on your personal preference. Start with a small amount and add more to taste.
  • Chill the lemonade before serving: Chill the lemonade for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld. You can also serve the lemonade over ice.
