Ingredients
- 24 ounces raspberries thawed and undrained (see note 1, frozen
- 1 (6 ounce) can lemonade concentrate thawed, frozen
- 1 (2 Liter) bottle ginger ale (see note 2)
- ice
- lemon sliced, for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- In a 4-quart saucepan, bring the raspberries to a simmer over medium-high heat. Cook, stir frequently, until the berries have broken apart and released their juices, about 10 to 15 minutes.
- Using a fine-mesh sieve, strain the berries to remove the seeds, pushing down on the solids to extract as much liquid as possible. You should have about 1½ cups. Refrigerate raspberry juice until chilled, at least 2 hours.
- In a large pitcher or punch bowl, combine raspberry juice and lemonade concentrate. Stir in ginger ale and serve immediately over ice, garnished with lemon slices if desired.

Notes
- Use thawed frozen raspberries rather than fresh for optimal flavor and color.
- Lemon-lime soda can replace ginger ale if desired, but the flavor and fizziness will differ slightly.
- This recipe yields about 10 servings of 1 cup each, making it suitable for parties.
- Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 4 days to maintain freshness.
- The raspberry syrup can be prepared up to 3 days ahead and frozen for up to 3 months; thaw in the fridge overnight before use.
- Add ginger ale only just before serving to preserve its fizz.
