How to Make Refreshing Raspberry Drink
- **Make the Raspberry Syrup:** In a medium bowl, gently mash 1 cup of fresh raspberries with the back of a wooden spoon.
- **Sweeten and Zest:** Add 1/2 cup of granulated sugar and 2 tablespoons of lime juice to the mashed raspberries. Mix well to combine.
- **Infuse the Flavor:** Let the mixture sit for 10 minutes, allowing the raspberries to release their juices and the flavors to meld.
- **Strain for Smoothness:** Strain the raspberry mixture through a fine-mesh sieve to remove the seeds. Set the strained syrup aside.
- **Prepare the Glasses:** Fill four large glasses with ice.
- **Add the Syrup:** Pour 1/4 cup of the raspberry syrup into each glass.
- **Top with Sparkling Water:** Add 3/4 cup of chilled sparkling mineral water or Sprite to each glass.
- **Finish the Fizz:** Gently stir to combine the syrup and sparkling water.
- **Sparkling Finale:** Top each glass with an additional 1/2 cup of chilled sparkling mineral water or Sprite.
- **Garnish and Serve:** Garnish each glass with fresh raspberries and/or lime wedges, if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy!
