Preparation

Step 1

Rolling the limes firmly on your countertop before cutting them will help extract the juice more more easily. Using a hand-held juice press makes it a breeze. For a grown-ups-only version, add a splash of cachaca, tequila, or other lime-friendly spirit.

Pour lime juice into a large pitcher. Add sugar and stir swiftly with a spoon until the sugar dissolves into the lime juice and no grittiness remains, about 1 minute. Add the water and stir again. Pour over crushed ice and garnish with slices of lime.

Makes about 6 cups of juice.
