To make lemonade, you need a carafe for a liter and a half, a lemon and a sprig of mint (or more, here it is to taste). Gently squeeze half a lemon directly into the decanter, having previously removed the bones. The remaining half of the lemon is cut into thin slices – for beauty and subsequent infusion, and also placed in a decanter. Next, we brew mint sprigs with a small amount of boiling water, let it brew for a couple of minutes, inhaling in the meantime a wonderful mint aroma that spreads around the house. Pour the infusion into a decanter with lemon slices. We add cold boiled water to the top of the decanter, put a fresh sprig of mint for beauty, put it in the refrigerator. It turns out a delicious natural lemonade, refreshingly sour and with a subtle hint of mint. If you like it sweeter, you can add sugar or honey to the drink. Lemonade with ice is served, decorated with mint leaves and lemon or lime slices. He drinks with pleasure. And my advice to you: next time, make two decanters at once.
