Let’s make it
Main Steps
In a blender, combine raspberries and half of the fresh lemon juice. Blend until smooth.
Main Steps
Strain the raspberry-lemon mixture through a fine mesh sieve into a large pitcher to remove seeds, pressing gently to extract all juice.
Main Steps
Add the remaining lemon juice, honey, and cold water to the pitcher. Stir well until honey is fully dissolved.
Main Steps
Taste and adjust sweetness by adding more honey if desired. Refrigerate the lemonade until thoroughly chilled, at least 30 minutes.
Serving
Serve lemonade over ice cubes in glasses. Garnish with fresh mint leaves if desired for an extra refreshing touch.
Tips & notes
Use ripe, juicy lemons for the best tartness. If you prefer less pulp, strain the lemonade twice. For a sparkling twist, substitute half the water with sparkling water just before serving to retain fizz.
Saving it for later
Store leftover lemonade in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Stir well before serving as some separation may occur.
Reheating
No reheating needed; serve chilled for best flavor and refreshment.
