Here’s A Refreshing Treat For Those Summer Scorchers

-1 cup fresh mint

-4 lemons juiced

-1 lemon sliced very thin

-2 cups water

-2 cups sugar

-1 gallon water

Combine 2 cups sugar and 2 cups water and bring to a boil stirring slowly.  Cool to room temp.  Heat a container with a lid that seals with hot water.  Discard water, add mint, close top and refrigerate jar till cool.  This will create a vacuum and extract the most minty oil.  Once cool, add juice, lemon slices and sugar water.  Shake, fill with water and allow to bloom overnight in the fridge.  Enjoy!
