There’s little more deliciously refreshing on a hot day than a glass of chilled Raspberry Lemonade. It’s so quick to make at home, and homemade lemonade has a lot less sugar per serving than most...

Directions

In a small pot over medium-high heat, combine sugar and 1 cup of the water. Bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally, until the sugar dissolves. Remove from heat and cool.
In a large pitcher, add raspberries. Using a wooden spoon, crush the raspberries. Add syrup, lemon juice, and the remaining 8 cups of water. Adjust to taste, adding more lemon juice or water as necessary.
Chill and serve over ice.

Chef Tips

It’s a great idea to make drinks like this at home. Commercial brands can have as much as an ounce of added sugars per cup.
