This is an old-fashioned and delicious type of homemade "tea".
Bring the water to a boil.
Rub the sugar over the lemon rind still on the lemon.
Pare the rind from the lemon. Peel thinly.
Put both the peel and the sugar into a heatproof jug.
Pour the boiling water over the peel and sugar.
Leave to cool. Once cool, decant the liquid. Add one tablespoon of fresh lemon juice and stir through.
Serve. Garnish with a mint leaf for a finishing touch.
