Tips for Organic Pink Lemonade

• You can use fresh or frozen raspberries, either works. If using frozen, thaw in the fridge overnight and strain off excess water. Then they are ready to use!
• You can juice fresh lemons or use lemon juice from a bottle, either works.
• Feel free to adjust the sugar if you want less sugar.
• You can make a sugar free version by skipping the simple syrup step and just adding in the water to the lemon and raspberry juice. Then add in your favorite organic stevia to taste!
• Make a sparkling option by using sparkling water instead of still when filling up the pitcher with the remaining water.
• Make these into popsicles by pouring into popsicle molds and freezing overnight.

How to Make Organic Pink Lemonade

1. Add ½ cup of water and the cane sugar into a small pot and put over medium heat. Stir until the sugar has completely dissolved. Remove from heat and add to a blender.

2. Add raspberries and lemon juice to the blender.

3. Blend on high until smooth and no pieces of fruit remain.

4. Strain through a fine mesh strainer to remove seeds and transfer to a pitcher. Add the remaining 4 ½ cups of water and stir to combine.

5. Serve over ice and add fresh raspberries (optional).
