How to Make Raspberry Refresher

  1. Gently crush 2 cups of fresh raspberries in a large saucepan.
  2. Stir in 1 cup of granulated sugar, 1/2 cup of white wine vinegar, and 1/2 cup of water.
  3. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to low, and simmer uncovered for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the raspberries have softened and released their juices.
  4. Remove from heat and carefully strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth to remove the seeds. Discard the seeds.
  5. Let the raspberry syrup cool completely, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld.
  6. Before serving, stir in 1 cup of chilled ginger ale and 1/2 cup of chilled water into the chilled raspberry syrup.
  7. Serve the Raspberry Refresher over ice. Garnish with fresh raspberries or a sprig of mint (optional).
