How to Make Raspberry Lemonade Coolers

  1. Gently mash 1 cup of fresh raspberries in a large bowl.
  2. Add 1/2 cup citrus vodka to the mashed raspberries.
  3. Cover the bowl and refrigerate overnight (or for at least 6 hours) to allow the raspberries to macerate.
  4. Strain the raspberry mixture through a fine-mesh sieve, pressing on the solids to extract as much liquid as possible.
  5. In a large pitcher, combine 1 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (from about 4-5 lemons), 1 cup granulated sugar, and 1/2 cup water.
  6. Gently mash the lemon pulp with a large wooden spoon to release more juice and combine with sugar and water.
  7. Add 4 cups of lemonade and the strained raspberry vodka to the pitcher.
  8. Stir well to combine all ingredients.
  9. Add ice cubes to the pitcher and stir again.
  10. Divide the lemonade mixture evenly among 8 glasses, adding a spoonful of mashed lemon pulp and ice to each glass.
  11. Garnish with fresh raspberries and lemon wedges (optional), and serve immediately.
