Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup fresh raspberries
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 2 cups sparkling water
- 1 cup ice cubes
- 4 sprigs mint leaves
- 4 optional slices lemon slices
Instructions
Rinse the fresh raspberries thoroughly under cool water and pat them dry with a clean towel.
In a small saucepan, combine the raspberries and granulated sugar. Cook over medium heat for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally until the raspberries break down and form a syrup-like consistency.
Remove the saucepan from heat and strain the raspberry mixture through a fine mesh sieve into a bowl, pressing with a spoon to extract as much liquid as possible. Discard the seeds and set the raspberry syrup aside to cool completely.
Fill two tall glasses with ice cubes about halfway up.
In each glass, add 1 tablespoon of fresh lemon juice and approximately 2-3 tablespoons of the cooled raspberry syrup, adjusting for sweetness as desired.
Top each glass with 1 cup of sparkling water. Stir gently to combine.
Garnish each glass with a sprig of mint and a slice of lemon for an elegant touch.
Serve immediately and enjoy your refreshing Raspberry Fizz!
