Ingredients

2 cups fresh raspberries
1 cup fresh lime juice about 8-10 limes
1/2 cup simple syrup
4 cups sparkling water
Fresh mint leaves
Ice cubes
Extra raspberries and lime slices for garnish

Instructions

Wash the raspberries and place them in the pitcher.
Use a muddler to gently crush the raspberries until they release their juice.
Add lime juice and simple syrup to the pitcher. Stir well.

Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh strainer to remove seeds.
Fill tall glasses with ice cubes.
Pour the raspberry-lime mixture into each glass, filling about 1/3 full.

Top with sparkling water and stir gently.
Garnish with fresh mint leaves, raspberries, and lime slices.

Notes

The simple syrup can be made by heating equal parts water and sugar until dissolved. Let it cool before using.

Store any leftover mixture in the fridge for up to 2 days.

For a stronger raspberry flavor, let the muddled berries sit in the lime juice for 30 minutes before straining.

Make ice cubes with raspberry juice to prevent the drink from becoming diluted.

Tasting Notes

This bright and bubbly mocktail offers a perfect balance of sweet and tart flavors. Fresh raspberries add a natural sweetness, while lime provides a zesty kick.

The drink starts with a fruity aroma from the muddled raspberries. Each sip reveals layers of berry notes followed by citrus hints.

Club soda gives this mocktail its signature effervescence. The bubbles create a light, refreshing mouthfeel that makes it easy to drink.

Key flavor notes:

Sweet raspberry
Tangy lime
Light fizz
Clean finish

The drink’s vibrant red-pink color makes it look as good as it tastes. Ice keeps it cold while diluting none of the flavors.

Mint garnish adds a fresh scent and subtle cooling sensation. The herb pairs well with both the raspberry and lime elements.

This mocktail tastes best when served very cold. The flavors blend together more smoothly as the drink sits for 1-2 minutes after mixing.
