Lemon Spritz

    Instructions

    1. Squeeze the lemons: Grab a citrus juicer and squeeze until you have 120 ml of that bright juice. Strain it if you don't like seeds.
    2. Make the simple syrup: If you don't have any on hand (no problem), simply combine equal parts water and sugar in a saucepan. Heat until the sugar dissolves, then let it cool.
    3. Combine the fresh lemon juice and simple syrup in a large pitcher and stir well
    4. Ice it up: Grab your serving glasses (long drink glasses are the most convenient) and fill them about halfway with ice cubes.
    5. Pour in: Fill each glass three-quarters full with your zesty mixture.
    6. Fizz it up: Fill each glass up with sparkling water or club soda. Let the bubbles come alive
    7. Garnish like a pro: Add a lemon slice and a few mint leaves for a touch of flair.
    8. Serve and enjoy: Give it a quick stir and serve immediately. It's time to enjoy those bright, refreshing flavors!

Customization tips

  • Herb infusion: Want to take it up a notch? Infuse your simple syrup with fresh herbs like basil or rosemary to bring some aromatic excitement!
  • Fruity boost: Feel free to add seasonal fruit like berries or cucumber for an extra juicy kick.
  • Cocktail upgrade: Turn this mocktail into a cocktail by adding 30 ml gin or vodka. Let's be honest, who doesn't love a little grown-up twist?

Unique twist: low-sugar version

For something lighter, swap the simple syrup for agave nectar or stevia. You can boost the flavor without all that sugar by adding some unsweetened cranberry or pomegranate juice for beautiful color and depth!
