How to Make Sparkling Raspberry Lemonade
- Combine 2 cups frozen raspberries, 1 cup sugar, and 1/2 cup water in a medium saucepan.
- Stir over medium heat until the sugar dissolves and the berries thaw completely.
- Increase heat to medium-high and bring to a boil. Boil for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Remove from heat and let the mixture cool slightly.
- Strain the raspberry mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl, pressing on the solids to extract as much juice as possible. Discard the solids.
- Add the zest of 2 lemons to the raspberry syrup in the bowl. Stir to combine.
- Refrigerate the raspberry syrup until completely chilled (at least 2 hours).
- In a large pitcher, combine the chilled raspberry syrup, 1 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice, and 4 cups chilled sparkling water. Stir gently to combine.
- Fill 6 glasses with ice cubes.
- Pour the raspberry lemonade into the glasses.
- Add fresh raspberries to each glass (optional).
- Garnish with lemon wedges and serve immediately.
