Raspberry Lemonade (Raspberry Pear Balsamic)
/Nothing like real ice cold home-made lemonade on a hot sunny day. But sometimes it can be a little too sweet and can benefit from a fruity balance. A drizzle of fruity white balsamic vinegar is just the solution. Our favorite one to add is raspberry pear, but feel free to substitute your own favorite!
Slowly heat 3/4 cup sugar with 3/4 cup water to make a simple syrup.
In a large pitcher, add:
1 cup of fresh squeezed lemon juice (we picked lemons from our tree),
3 cups of water,
plenty of ice, and
all of the simple syrup.
To serve, pour in a tall glass over ice and drizzle in 2 tablespoons of our Raspberry Pear Balsamic.
(Note: I served this at a food demo at Williams Sonoma with positive response from all age groups.)
Enjoy!
