- Cut each lemon in half and squeeze out as much juice as possible using a fork or a juicer.

Notes
Mint simple syrup - A simple mix of mint, sugar, and water. I have steps on how to make mint simple syrup here. As a substitute, use muddled fresh mint leaves and granulated sugar. Simple syrup dissolves much better into the lemonade than granulated sugar.
You can amp up the mint flavor without adding more sweetener by adding muddled mint to the pitcher or glass, just like you would with a mojito.
