Method

Put the lemon juice, sugar, most of the mint leaves and the orange blossom (if using) in a blender. Whizz for a couple of seconds until the mint is finely chopped.
Strain the mixture into a pitcher and add 600ml cold water. Serve in glasses over ice cubes with the remaining mint leaves.

Tip: If you like a stronger mint taste, let the mixture stand for at least 15 mins before straining.
