Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups fresh lemon juice about 10-12 lemons
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 6 cups water
  • 1 teaspoon activated charcoal powder optional, for color
  • 1 cup blueberries fresh or frozen

  5. Chill the Witches’ Brew Lemonade in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving.
  6. Serve over ice cubes in glasses, and garnish with lemon slices and mint leaves.
