Step by Step guide

Step 1

In a saucepan, add the white sugar, pour in 1 cup of water, bring to a boil, and simmer until the sugar is completely dissolved. Add the grated ginger root to the sugar syrup and immediately cool it by placing it in a bowl of crushed ice.

Step 2

Pour the juice of three limes and three lemons into the saucepan, add the zest, and refrigerate for 30 minutes.

Step 3

Cut the remaining whole lemon in half lengthwise and slice it into thin wedges, mix with the mint leaves, place in a pitcher with a wide mouth, sprinkle with brown sugar, and muddle with a pestle. Pour the cold lemonade into the pitcher, dilute with water and ice to taste, from 2 to 4 cups. You can use sparkling water instead of regular water.
