2In a blender, combine the fresh grapes (2 cups) and 1 cup of water (4 cups). Blend until smooth.

4In a separate bowl, mix the freshly squeezed lemon juice (1 cup) and sugar (1 cup) until the sugar (1 cup) is completely dissolved.

5Add the lemon juice (1 cup) mixture to the pitcher with the grape (2 cups) juice (1 cup).

6Pour in the remaining 3 cups of water (4 cups) and stir well to combine all the ingredients.

7Taste the lemonade and adjust the sweetness by adding more sugar (1 cup) if desired.

8Refrigerate the grape (2 cups) lemonade for at least 30 minutes to chill.

9Serve the grape (2 cups) lemonade over ice cubes and garnish with fresh mint leaves.
