Instructions

  1. Roll the limes back and forth on the counter to break the membranes inside the lime and make them easier to squeeze. Cut each in half and juice with a juicer or by hand. You should have about ½ cup of key lime juice.
  2. Add key lime juice, simple syrup, water and ice to a pitcher. Taste for sweetness and adjust accordingly. Serve cold with mint leaves in the pitcher or in glasses for garnish and a little extra flavor.
