Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups fresh raspberries
- 0.5 cups lemon juice
- 1 cups orange juice
- 1 cups pineapple juice
- 2 cups sparkling water
- 0.25 cups granulated sugar
- 0.25 cups water
- 2 cups ice cubes
- 0.25 cups fresh mint leaves (optional, for garnish)
- 5 slices lemon slices (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a small saucepan, combine the granulated sugar and water. Heat over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar dissolves completely to make a simple syrup (approximately 3-5 minutes). Set it aside to cool.
In a large mixing bowl, use a fork or a muddler to gently mash the fresh raspberries. This will release their juices and enhance the flavor of the punch.
Add the lemon juice, orange juice, and pineapple juice to the raspberries. Stir well to combine.
Once the simple syrup has cooled, pour it into the juice and raspberry mixture. Stir thoroughly.
Gently add the sparkling water to the punch bowl or pitcher and stir lightly to avoid losing the fizz.
Fill a large serving bowl or individual glasses with ice cubes. Pour the raspberry punch over the ice.
If desired, garnish with fresh mint leaves and lemon slices for an extra touch of elegance.
Serve immediately and enjoy your refreshing Raspberry Punch with friends and family!
