Instructions

Make a simple syrup by combining the sugar with 1 cup of water in a saucepan. Place over medium heat and heat until the sugar in completely dissolved; swirl the pan occasionally. Let cool.
Measure 3/4 cup of fresh raspberries and puree them in your blender or food processor.
Push the raspberry puree through a fine mesh sieve to separate the seeds from the pulp.
Once the simple syrup has cooled, combine the raspberry puree, simple syrup and lemon juice in a large pitcher.
Add 4-6 cups of cold water. The amount of water you use will depend on your taste, so add as little or as much as you want to achieve your perfect sweet/tart balance.
