Sparkling Raspberry Lemonade Recipe (video)
Quick and easy, 4-ingredient sparkling lemonade with real raspberries and tonic water!
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups fresh or frozen raspberries
- 1/2 cup white granulated sugar, more or less to taste
- 1 cup lemon juice
- 2 liters chilled tonic water, or club soda
- 6 to 8 cups ice , for serving
Instructions
- Combine raspberry, lemon juice and sugar in a medium saucepan (add more or less sugar to your liking; I like my lemonade a bit tangy. Can also substitute the sugar with honey or agave). Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook for about 15 minutes until raspberry sauce reduces. Remove from heat and cool completely before using.
- You can serve the lemonade with seeds or without. To remove the raspberry seeds, press syrup through fine mesh strainer.
- To serve, add 3-4 tablespoons of syrup into each glass, add ice and pour over with tonic water. Serve with slices of lemon and/berries as garnish. Alternatively, mix syrup with 2 liters of tonic water and keep chilled with ice.
