#Beverage #Drink >> Sparkling Raspberry Lemonade
Time to enjoy warm days outside, calm days at the sunlit beach, or just to relax in your backyard – lying a hammock as you bask in the warmth of the sun on your skin, while enjoying long sips from of tall glass of this ice cold Sparkling Raspberry Lemonade. There’s my ideal summer, now I just need that comfy hammock with an extra soft and plush pillow. But for now, at least I have this irresistibly refreshing fresh raspberry lemonade!
Ingredients
- 12 oz fresh raspberries
- 1 cup fresh lemon juice, chilled

- 1/2 cup honey
- 1 liter (33.8 oz) sparkling water or club soda, chilled

Directions
- Place raspberries in a food processor and pulse until well pureed. Force raspberry puree through a fine mesh strainer into a bowl.
