Ingredients:

  • 1 cup (125g) fresh raspberries
  • 2 tbsp (30ml) fresh lime juice
  • 3 tbsp (45ml) honey
  • 6 large fresh mint leaves
  • 3 cups (710ml) chilled sparkling water
  • 4 fresh raspberries
  • 4 sprigs of fresh mint
  • 4 lime wheels

Instructions:

  1. Place the 1 cup (125g) fresh raspberries, 2 tbsp (30ml) fresh lime juice, and 3 tbsp (45ml) honey in the base of 4 glasses or a sturdy pitcher.
  2. Use a muddler to press down firmly on the berries until they are broken down into a thick, fragrant pulp.
  3. Add 6 large fresh mint leaves and press them gently with the muddler to release the aromatic oils without shredding them.
  4. Stir the mixture thoroughly with a spoon to ensure the honey is fully integrated and the berry pulp is evenly distributed.
  5. Fill each glass to the brim with ice cubes.
  6. Slowly pour the 3 cups (710ml) chilled sparkling water over the ice.
  7. Using a long spoon, gently lift the raspberry base from the bottom in one fluid motion to create an ombre effect.
  8. Garnish each glass with one lime wheel, one mint sprig, and one fresh raspberry.
