Ingredients

• 2 cups fresh raspberries
• 4 cups cold water
• 1/4 cup honey or agave syrup
• 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• Ice cubes
• Optional: Fresh mint leaves for garnish

Instructions

1. Rinse the raspberries under cold water and place them in a blender.
2. Add the cold water, honey (or agave syrup), and fresh lemon juice to the blender. Blend until smooth, and the raspberries are thoroughly pureed.
3. Strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth into a large pitcher to remove the seeds, leaving you with smooth, tangy raspberry juice.
4. Add the vanilla extract to the pitcher and stir well to combine. The vanilla adds a subtle, fragrant sweetness that complements the raspberries beautifully.
5. Fill glasses with ice cubes and pour the raspberry vanilla juice over the ice. Garnish each glass with fresh mint leaves for an added touch of freshness.
6. Serve immediately and enjoy the perfect balance of sweet and tangy flavors with your loved ones.

Helpful Tips and Variations

• For a natural sweetener, replace honey with pomegranate juice if desired.
• Serve your raspberry vanilla juice in chilled glasses to keep it extra refreshing.
• Perfect for parties, you can prepare a larger batch and serve it in a punch bowl with floating raspberries and ice cubes.

Storage and Substitutions

Refrigerate any leftover juice in an airtight container for up to 2 days. Before serving, give it a good stir as natural separation may occur.

If raspberries are out of season, frozen raspberries work wonderfully as a substitute. Thaw them before blending.

Pairings and Complements

This drink pairs beautifully with light snacks such as cucumber sandwiches, cheese platters, or a fresh fruit salad. For dessert, consider serving with lemon bars or shortbread cookies to complement the tangy-sweet profile of the juice.
