Method
Directions
Prepare the Limes
Start by washing the limes thoroughly under running water to remove any dirt or pesticides.
Juice the Limes
Cut the limes in half and use a citrus juicer to extract the juice from all 4 limes into a measuring cup. You should have about 1 cup of lime juice.
Mix Lime Juice with Syrup
Once the syrup is cooled, mix in the lime juice until well combined.
Prepare the Mint
Wash the mint leaves and gently bruise them by using a muddler or the back of a spoon to release their essential oils.
Assemble the Drink
In a pitcher, combine the lime syrup mixture with the bruised mint leaves. Stir well to combine.
Serve
Fill glasses with ice cubes and pour the lime mixture over the ice. Garnish with additional mint leaves if desired and serve immediately.
