Equipment

A blender is essential to puree the raspberries. This helps to release their sweet and tangy flavors.
You’ll need a fine strainer to ensure a smooth drink by removing the seeds.

A muddler or a sturdy spoon is useful to mash the ginger, releasing its spicy, bold taste.
A large pitcher is also necessary to mix everything together.
For serving, you’ll want some ice cubes and your favorite glasses!

Decorative items like mint sprigs or extra raspberries can make your mocktail look extra special. Let me know if you try a different garnish!

Ingredients

Here’s what I use to make this mocktail:

1 cup fresh or frozen raspberries
1 tablespoon grated ginger
1/2 cup sugar
1 cup water
2 cups chilled sparkling water
Ice cubes for serving
You’ll love the balance of flavors! 🍓 Ginger adds a little zing and the raspberries are naturally sweet.

Feel free to adjust the sugar if you like your drinks less sweet. You could try honey or a sugar substitute too!

Instructions

Start by making a simple syrup.

Combine sugar, water, and grated ginger in a saucepan. Bring this to a boil, stirring until the sugar dissolves.
Let it cool, then strain out the ginger.
Next, blend the raspberries until smooth. Strain the puree to remove seeds.

In a pitcher, mix the raspberry puree with the ginger syrup. Add sparkling water and stir gently.
Pour over ice and serve in glasses.

You can decorate with fresh mint or whole raspberries. Watch your friends go “Wow!” when they taste it. 😄

Notes

A couple of tips will help.

Use fresh raspberries if they’re in season—they make a real difference in flavor.

If ginger is too intense, try using a little less at first.

This recipe is super versatile!

You can add a splash of lemon juice for extra zing, or use flavored sparkling water for a twist.

If you want to try another fruit, mango or strawberry would be delicious! 🍋🍓

Tips & Tricks

When I make a Raspberry Ginger Sparkler Mocktail, I love using fresh raspberries. They give a bold flavor and a pop of color. 🍓 If fresh isn’t available, frozen works great, too.

Chilling all ingredients before mixing is a game-changer. This ensures the drink is cool and refreshing, just the way we like it! 🧊

For extra fizz, I use chilled sparkling water. This keeps the bubbles lively and makes every sip exciting.

To experiment with flavors, add a touch of mint or a slice of lime. These little extras can make your mocktail extra special. 🌿🍋

Presentation matters!

I enjoy serving it in a nice glass with a raspberry or mint leaf garnish on top. It’s a small detail that adds a lot.

Keep a bottle of ginger syrup ready for when you want an extra spicy kick.
Pouring the sparkling water slowly helps maintain the fizz.
Don’t stir too much; just a gentle mix will do.
