Original Recipe Yield 1 gallon
 

Ingredients

  • 1 (12 ounce) can frozen lemonade concentrate, thawed
  • 1 fresh lemon
  • 1 1/4 cups white sugar
  • 1/2 cup fresh mint leaves

Directions

  1. Pour the lemonade concentrate into a large pitcher or cooler with a spout. Stir in enough water to make 1 gallon. Grate the zest from the lemon and add to the pitcher, then squeeze the lemon juice from the lemon into the pitcher. In a small bowl, crush the mint leaves into the sugar using a muddler or a wooden spoon. Stir into the lemonade. Cover and chill for several hours, then strain to remove the leaves and zest before serving. Serve over ice and garnish with a sprig of mint.
