Wash a lemon very well and peel its skin, try to make it barely white, and put it in the blender bowl or whatever you are going to use to prepare it.
Peel the 4 lemons completely so that you are left with only the wedges, no white part or skin. Also, remove all the seeds you can.
Put the lemons in the blender bowl, and add half of the water (about 250 g).
Grind everything until you have a paste. We used our blender and in 30 seconds we had everything well crushed.
Pour the mixture onto a sieve and strain it. There are those who prefer not to strain it, but I assure you that it is much better strained since there are always some seeds and traces of skin left, and when you take it you can tell.
Rinse the bowl of the mixer, pour the strained mixture into it, and add the rest of the water, the cubes and the sugar. Grind everything again until the cubes have practically fallen apart, and you're ready to go.
