Preparation

Preparation of Lemonade Base

1. Juice the Lemons

Roll the fresh lemons on a countertop to soften them, then cut them in half. Use a citrus juicer to extract the juice from the lemons into a measuring cup, ensuring to remove any seeds.

2. Make Sugar Syrup

In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup of granulated sugar and 1 cup of water. Heat over medium heat, stirring until the sugar is completely dissolved. Remove from heat and let cool.

3. Combine Ingredients

In a large pitcher, combine the freshly squeezed lemon juice, cooled sugar syrup, and 3 cups of water. Stir well to mix.

Adding Flavors

4. Infuse with Mint

Add 1 cup of fresh mint leaves to the lemonade mixture. Let it sit for at least 30 minutes to allow the mint to infuse its flavor.

5. Add Raspberry Syrup

Stir in 1 cup of raspberry syrup into the lemonade mixture, adjusting to taste if you prefer a sweeter or more tangy flavor.

6. Finish with Club Soda

Just before serving, slowly add 2 cups of club soda to the mixture for a refreshing fizz. Stir gently to combine.

Serving
