- Add the remaining 4 cups of water, ½ cup of sugar (adjust to your sweetness preference), and the juice of 2 limes to the pitcher.
- Stir thoroughly to combine all ingredients. Taste and add more water or sugar if needed to reach your desired sweetness and consistency.
- Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to chill thoroughly before serving. Garnish with fresh fruit slices or lime wedges for an extra touch of elegance.
