INSTRUCTIONS

FOR A PITCHER:
Squeeze and press the oranges- set aside. Save 5-6 slices of oranges for garnish to go on the glass.

Place crushed ice cubes in 5-6 (or 8-10)glasses. a pitcher with at least 1 quart (4 cups) capacity.
Add blood orange juice, fresh lime juice, and agave. (Taste your blood orange juice before adding the agave/sugar. Sometimes it’s super sweet juice, other times, it’s tart. That’ll help you determine how much sweetener you might need.)

1/8/20 I just added the sugar right to the blood orange juice and stirred, it dissolved well.
Stir to combine.
Top off with sparkling water.
Garnish with mint leaves and citrus slices
