Minty Lemonade

Citronnade ? la Menthe

one large lemon
two liters of water (preferably filtered or bottled)
twelve leaves of fresh mint

Slice the lemon in two, juice it and pour the juice into a large jug.
Add in the water.
Rince the mint leaves under cool water, and add them into the jug.
Stir with a long wooden spoon.

Cover the jug, and let rest in the fridge for a couple of hours. Put a few ice cubes in a glass, stir the lemonade again, and pour some in your glass. If a mint leaf falls out, keep it as a pretty garnish.
