👨‍🍳 Instructions

In a small saucepan, combine the water, sugar and 1 tablespoon of chopped mint.

Stir and bring to a boil.

Cook until sugar has dissolved, then remove from heat and set aside to cool.

After about an hour, strain out mint leaves.

Fill 2 cups or frozen goblets with crushed ice.

Pour 1/2 of the lemonade into each glass and top with a splash of the sugar syrup.

Garnish each with a mint sprig and a straw.

Serve on a silver platter.
