Blood Orange Lemonade

• FOR THE SIMPLE SYRUP:
• 1 cup Sugar
• 1/2 cups Water
• _____
• FOR THE LEMONADE:
• 1 cup Fresh Blood Orange Juice, 6 To 7 Oranges
• 1 cup Fresh Lemon Juice, 4 To 5 Lemons
• 3 cups Water
• 1/2 whole Blood Orange For Garnish
• 4 spears Mint, For Garnish

1. To make the simple syrup, grab a medium saucepan and place over medium heat. Add the sugar and water for about 5 minutes or until the sugar is dissolved. It'll become a syrup consistency.
2. Juice blood oranges and lemons in separate measuring cups. In a pitcher, add the blood orange juice, lemon juice, water, and simple syrup. If you don't like pulp then just place a sieve over the pitcher and run it through that. Pour over ice and serve with blood orange slices and mint as garnish.
3. If you want it with a kick, then juice a piece of ginger and add it. I highly recommend it.
4. Stays good in the fridge for 3 days.
