My raspberry lemonade can be made with fresh or frozen raspberries and takes just 10 minutes to prepare. It's incredibly refreshing and perfect for sipping all summer long! Recipe includes a how-to video!
Combine 1 cup (236ml) of water with raspberries and granulated sugar in a small saucepan over medium-low heat.
8 oz raspberries, 1 cup granulated sugar
Stir frequently until sugar is dissolved and raspberries release their juices (raspberries will become very soft and should break into pieces).
Pour through a fine mesh strainer into your pitcher (or into a separate bowl, if it’s not easy to strain directly into pitcher). Use a spoon or spatula to press as much juice through the strainer as possible. Discard remaining seeds.
Add lemon juice and remaining 5 cups (1.2L) water to the pitcher. Stir well.
1 cup lemon juice
Serve immediately poured over ice or chill well before serving. Garnish with lemon wedges, if desired. Always stir before serving lemonade.
