There’s nothing more refreshing, especially when it’s suddenly hot again. Yes, that brilliant pink color is just from a few raspberries!

For two glasses of lemonade:

• 3 lemons (save slices for garnish)
• simple syrup
• 6 ripe red raspberries
• sparkling water

Juice the lemons and add simple syrup to taste (I don’t put much in; you will probably want more). Combine with the raspberries and ice in a shaker. Shake well and strain into two tall glasses with ice. Fill with sparkling water, stir, and garnish with lemon slices. Add vodka if you must for an adult beverage, but this is a treat all by itself.
