Prep Time: 10

Ingredients

½ cup fresh lemon juice (about 4 lemons)
¾ cup cold water
¼ cup lightly packed packed fresh mint (about 4 grams), plus 4 small sprigs to use as garnish
¼ cup sugar (I used organic cane sugar)*
4 cups ice

Instructions

In a blender, combine the lemon juice, water, mint and sugar. Blend until the sugar has completely dissolved into the liquid.
Add the ice. Blend on low speed to break up the ice, then increase the speed and blend until you’ve reached a uniformly slushy texture. (If the mixture is too thick to blend, let it rest for 5 minutes, stir by hand, and try again.) Pour into glasses and place a sprig of mint in each. Serve immediately.
