Sparkling Raspberry Lemonade
Anything that sparkles is my jam. Diamonds. Drinks. You name it! So this Sparkling Raspberry Lemonade is right up my alley!
Ingredients
- 3 cup raspberries fresh
- 1 cup sugar
- ½ cup water
- 1 cup lemon juice fresh
- 1 1- liter bottle 33.8 ounces chilled sparkling water
- ice cubes
- raspberries fresh, for garnish
- lemon super thin slices for garnish
Instructions
- Combine raspberries, sugar, and ½ cup water in medium saucepan. Stir over medium heat until sugar dissolves and berries begin to break down. Increase heat and boil for about 3 minutes. Strain raspberry mixture into bowl, pressing on solids to extract as much liquid as possible; discard solids in strainer. Chill until cold.
- Stir raspberry syrup, lemon juice, and sparkling water in large pitcher to blend. Garnish with fresh raspberries and thinly sliced lemons.
Notes
- Make the raspberry syrup ahead of time so it's nice and cold. Then add sparkle when your guests arrive! This would also work with strawberries.
