Directions:
- Bring sugar and water to a boil, stirring to dissolve sugar. Boil 1 minute.
- Add lemon peel strips and mint sprigs (I prefer Kentucky mint, but any will work).
- Cover and let stand 30 minutes to infuse syrup with flavors.
- Strain through a sieve into a large pitcher.
- Add lemon juice.
- Stir well and chill for at least 2 hours.
- At serving time, add sparkling water.
- Place ice cubes in a glass, and fill with mint lemonade.
- Enjoy!
