Instructions

1. Wash the limes and lemons with hot water, cut them into half slices and put them in a jug together with the fresh mint (washed, of course).
2. Add the elderflower syrup and stir with a wooden spoon. Squeeze the limes, lemons and mint a little so that the flavors and juices can escape. Now pour in mineral water (still or carbonated) and let it steep for about 15 minutes.
3. To serve, add ice cubes to the glasses and pour on the lemonade. Mint, lemon and limes are allowed in the glasses, it looks great. If you don`t want that, you can simply freeze lime and lemon pieces and mint in ice cube trays at the same time.
4. If you want it to be sweeter, you can replace the water with lemonade, but on hot days I don`t find it quite as refreshing as with water.
