What you'll need;

- 1 cup water, plus 4/5 extra to mix in at the end
- 3/4 cup raspberries
- 1 cup freshly squeezed lemons, I used 6
- 1 cup of sugar

Lets get started;

1. Heat the cup of water and sugar in a saucepan on a medium heat until the sugar dissolves. Stir it occasionally then once it's all combined, leave it to cool. 

2. Puree the raspberries in a food processor or blender, don't worry about the seeds as we'll deal with those in a second. Once you're happy you've got a smooth consistency pour it into a fine sieve to separate the seeds. You may have to push down on it with a spoon to get all the puree through. 


3. Squeeze all your lemons, remove the pips and mix this in with the raspberry puree. 

4. At this point, your sugar syrup should have cooled down enough so add that in too, as well as 4/5 extra cups of water to get the correct taste/bitterness you desire. I added 4 and found this to be perfect for me. 

5. We're done! Pour it in a glass, add a slice of lemon and some extra raspberries on top and enjoy!
