- 1/2 cup lemon juice plus 1 lemon, sliced into wheels
- 1/2 cup blackberries
- 1/2 cup raspberries
- 1/2 cup strawberries, halved
- 2 liters seltzer or soda water
Directions
- Pour the sugar and 1 cup water into a small pot and place over medium heat. Bring to a simmer, stirring until the sugar is dissolved. Remove from the heat and add the mint sprigs. Let the mint steep for 10 minutes, then discard the mint.
