Directions Preparation:20min › Ready in:20min
Cut the citrus fruits in half crossways. Juice them using either an electric juicer or a simple citrus squeezer, preferably one that strains out the seeds but leaves in a generous quantity of pulp. If you have no squeezer at all, poke a fork into the flesh several times, then squeeze the juice from the fruit by hand, prodding with the fork now and again.
Combine the citrus juices in a jug with the lime zest, water, sugar and mint. Stir, then pour into glasses over a few ice cubes and, if you like, add slices of lime and lemon.
