Homemade Raspberry Lemonade

Hot enough for you? This easy recipe should cool you right down. I first discovered this delicious treat while on vacation, and liked it so much I tried to make it when I got home. It turned out well! They were selling it for $60/jug at the hotel pool. It cost me about $5 at home.

I've made it with booze and without, it's equally good either way. It is really easy to make and low Calorie (if you omit the booze). If you don't mind the bite, omit the sugar altogether.

Ingredients:


Juice of 4 fresh lemons
1 lemon, sliced into 8th's
1 cup raspberries
1 litre soda water
1 cup vodka or rum (optional)
Lots of ice
Sugar, to taste (optional)

Prep:


Combine soda, lemon juice and vodka (if using) in a jug. Crush about 1/2 of the raspberries in your hand and throw them in. Add the ice. Stir well. Add sugar if desired. Add ice, the rest of the raspberries (whole) and lemon slices. Give one last stir and serve! Enjoy!
