Ingredients
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 cup water
- 1 bunch mint, leaves torn
- 1 cup lemon juice
- water
Directions
- Make simple syrup: mix water and sugar together in a sauce pan over medium heat, until sugar dissolves.
- Add mint leaves, and turn off heat. Allow to sit for 10 minutes, then remove mint leaves, and allow to cool.
- Meanwhile, juice lemons - it depends on how many lemons you have to get to 1 cup...mine only took like 3. I got big lemons, y'all.
- Once your simple syrup is cool, fill a pitcher with us, then simple syrup, lemon juice, and then water to taste.
- Serve cold over ice, or mix half and half with iced tea!
