Method
 

Preparation
  1. Mash raspberries in the bottom of a bowl with a fork until juice starts flowing.
  2. Juice the lemons, rolling them on the counter first for better juice extraction.
  3. Combine the lemon juice, raspberry mash, sweetener, and cold water in a pitcher.
  4. Taste the mixture before adding rose water, adjusting sweetness as necessary.
  5. Add rose water slowly, stirring and tasting until the desired floral flavor is reached.
  6. For a frozen drink, blend the mixture with ice.
  7. Chill in the fridge for 20-30 minutes for better flavor melding before serving.
Serving
  1. Rub a lemon wedge around the rim of each glass, dip in sugar, and garnish with fresh raspberries.
  2. Serve with ice, and enjoy your refreshing Raspberry Rose Lemonade!

Notes

The drink can last in the fridge for about 2-3 days. Stir before serving because fruit settles. Make sure to add sweetener gradually to avoid overly sweet lemonade.
