Grate the lemon zest and squeeze the juice.
Add the lemon juice, zest, sugar, and water to a blender.
Blend briefly, without breaking up the zest too much, then strain and serve cold.
💡 Tip: A short blend is enough here, over-processing the zest can pull bitterness into the lemonade.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve well chilled with mint leaves and plenty of ice.
