Equipment
Ingredients
- 8 ounces fresh raspberries about 2 cups, plus extra for garnish
- Peel from 1 large or 2 small lemons
- 1/2-3/4 cup honey
- 1 cup water
- ¾ cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 3 cups coconut water
Instructions
- Combine the raspberries, lemon peel, honey (use as much honey as you like for sweetness), and water in a pot or saucepan over medium heat. Mash the berries until they are fully broken down. Once the mixture just comes to a simmer, remove it from the heat. Allow the raspberry mixture to cool for 30 minutes then strain it through a sieve or fine mesh strainer. The strained liquid is your raspberry syrup.
- Pour the lemon juice into a large pitcher, followed by the strained raspberry syrup and coconut water, stir to combine. Chill the lemonade for as long as you like.
- Before serving, stir the lemonade. Serve the lemonade over plenty of ice with an optional garnish of fresh raspberries and a lemon slice if you like.
