Comment préparer Mint Lemonade

Thinly slice 7 lemons.
Remove seeds from the sliced lemons and place them in a large mixing bowl.
Add 12 fresh mint leaves to the bowl.
Sprinkle 1 cup of granulated sugar over the lemons and mint.
Pour 4 cups of boiling water over the lemon and mint mixture.
Let the mixture steep for 45 minutes at room temperature, occasionally gently pressing the lemons and mint with a wooden spoon to release their flavors.
Strain the liquid through a fine-mesh strainer into a large glass punch bowl or pitcher (at least 2.5 quart capacity).
Juice the remaining lemon (about 1/4 cup juice).
Add the freshly squeezed lemon juice to the strained liquid.
Add 4 cups of cold water to the pitcher.
Stir the mixture well to combine.
Add ice cubes to the pitcher.
Stir rapidly to chill the lemonade thoroughly.
Ladle or pour the lemonade into glasses, adding a few ice cubes to each.
Garnish each glass with a fresh mint leaf.
