Red Raspberry Lemonade

This tangy, refreshing lemonade makes a perfect punch

for any occasion.

Makes 10 cups lemonade

112-ounce package frozen raspberries (no sugar added), thawed

112 cups superfine sugar

112 cups fresh lemon juice (or lime juice for Red Raspberry Limeade)

7cups cold water or sparkling water, seltzer or club soda

Place the raspberries in the mixing beaker. Place the Cuisinart® Smart Stick® in the mixing beaker, making certain the protective guard is sub- merged in the raspberries. Blend, using a gentle up-and-down motion, moving the blender from the bottom to just under the top of the rasp- berries, until the raspberries are blended and completely puréed. Press raspberry purée through a fine mesh strainer (chinois) using a wooden spoon or spatula. There will be about 1 cup purée.

Place raspberry purée in a large pitcher with the sugar. Insert the hand blender in the mixture, making certain the protective guard is sub- merged in the mixture. Blend, using a gentle up-and-down motion, until the sugar is completely dissolved, about 1 minute. Add the lemon juice and blend again until completely mixed, about 15 seconds.

To serve, add chilled water to raspberry-lemon mixture. Serve over ice and garnish with a sprig of fresh mint, a thin slice of lemon, and some fresh raspberries.
