Juice the lemons. Roll them firmly on a countertop before cutting to maximize juice yield. Squeeze to get about 1 cup of fresh juice, then strain to remove any seeds.
Make the simple syrup. In a small saucepan, combine the granulated sugar and 1 cup of water. Heat over medium heat, stirring constantly until the sugar has completely dissolved, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from the heat and let it cool completely to room temperature.
Combine the ingredients. In a large pitcher, pour in the cooled simple syrup and the fresh lemon juice. Add the remaining 3 cups of cold water and stir well to combine.
Chill the lemonade in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Serve the lemonade over glasses filled with ice. Garnish with fresh lemon slices and mint leaves.
