RASPBERRY MINT LEMONADE
Made this experimenting, but it actually came out pretty good, in my opinion. My husband loves it. Prep time does not include freezing time.

Steps:
- Make your lemonade, however you like it. Everyone has their own recipe for lemonade.
- In an ice cube tray, place one raspberry and one mint leaf in each compartment (if the mint leaves are small, I usually put two).
- Fill ice cube tray with lemonade and freeze.
- Once frozen, add to your lemonade. Once the cubes start to melt, it will infuse the lemonade with the flavor of the raspberries and mint leaves, and since it was frozen with lemonade and not just plain water, it will not "water down" the flavors.

Steps:
- In a blender or food processor purée 1 cup of the raspberries with 1 cup of the water and force the purée through a fine sieve set over a pitcher, pressing hard on the solids. Add the remaining 1 cup raspberries, the remaining 2 1/2 cups water, the sugar, and the lime juice and stir the mixture until the sugar is dissolved. Divide the limeade among tall glasses filled with ice cubes and garnish each drink with some of the mint sprigs.
Tips:
- Use a citrus juicer to extract the most juice from your limes. If you don't have a citrus juicer, you can use a fork to poke holes in the limes and then squeeze them by hand.
- If you want your limeade to be sweeter, add more sugar or honey to taste. You can also use a sugar-free sweetener, such as stevia, if you prefer.
- To make your limeade fizzy, add a can of club soda or sparkling water. You can also use ginger ale or lemon-lime soda for a different flavor.
- For a refreshing summer drink, serve your limeade over ice. You can also garnish it with a lime wedge or a sprig of mint.
- Limeade is a great way to use up leftover limes. You can also freeze limeade for later use.
