Directions:
- With your hands or a reamer, squeeze the juice from limes to make 1 cup of lime juice. Set juice and lime rings aside.
- Pour water into a 2-quart microwavable glass measuring cup. Microwave, uncovered for 6 to 8 minutes on High until almost boiling. Little bubbles will form on the water surface.
- Add sugar and salt and stir until dissolved. Add lime rinds and let the mixture stand for 10 minutes until cool.
- Squeeze the remaining juice from the rinds into the limeade through a sieve into a pitcher. Add reserved lime juice and stir well. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
- To serve, fill a tall glass with ice and add limeade. Garnish with a slice of lime and a sprig of mint.
