Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons honey or simple syrup
  • 1 cup cold water
  • 1/2 cup sparkling water
  • 6 to 8 fresh mint leaves
  • 1 cup ice
  • Lemon slices (optional garnish)
  • Extra mint sprigs (optional garnish)

Instructions

  1. Place the fresh mint leaves in a glass or small pitcher and gently muddle them with a spoon to release their flavor.
  2. Add the fresh lemon juice and honey or simple syrup, stirring until the sweetener dissolves.
  3. Pour in the cold water and mix well so the flavors combine evenly.
  4. Fill the glass with ice.
  5. Add the sparkling water and gently stir to create a light, bubbly finish.
  6. Garnish with lemon slices and fresh mint sprigs before serving.

Notes

  • Add sliced cucumber for an extra refreshing twist.
  • Blend the lemonade with crushed ice to create a slushy version.
  • Mashed strawberries or raspberries can be added for a fruity flavor variation.
  • If preparing ahead, store the lemonade base in the refrigerator for up to 1 day and add sparkling water just before serving.
  • Adjust sweetness by reducing honey or syrup and adding more water or sparkling water.
