Equipment
- large pitcher
- lemon juicer
- glasses
Ingredients
- 2 pounds lemons 2 pound bag
- 2 cups filtered water
- 28 oz club soda
- ½-¾ cup white sugar
- 2-3 cups of ice
- 5 oz Mint leaves
Instructions
- Start with slicing the lemons in half and juicing them. I use a juicer that is attached to a small glass bowl that catches the seeds and pulp.
- Take the juice and strain it into a pitcher. This way you remove any remaining seeds.
- Pour in the filtered water and the sugar. Give it a stir with a large spoon.
- Add the ice cubes.
- Divide among 4 glasses and top with club soda. Add a generous amount of the mint into the glasses and serve immediately.

Storing:
Store the lemon sugar mixture (without the club soda or the ice) in a covered pitcher in the fridge for up to 2 days. Helpful tips:
If you prefer your sparkling lemonade to be more tart, use ¼-½ sugar only. Always taste as you go - that way you aren't overloading it with sugar.
Serve cold- the colder the better and make sure the club soda is cold.
If serving for a party, serve in a small punch bowl, drink dispenser or in a large pitcher. Garnish with lemon slices or mint ice cubes for an impressive drink presentation.
