For the Lemonade:
- 1 cup fresh lemon juice (about 4–5 lemons)
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 4 cups cold water
- 1 cup fresh raspberries (plus extra for garnish)
For the Whipped Topping:
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Additional:
- Lemonade Preparation: In a blender, combine the fresh lemon juice, sugar, raspberries, and 1 cup of cold water. Blend until smooth and well combined.
- Strain the Mixture: Strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve into a large pitcher to remove the seeds and pulp, using the back of a spoon to press the liquid through.
- Combine Ingredients: Add the remaining 3 cups of cold water to the pitcher and stir well. Taste and adjust sweetness if needed by adding more sugar. Set aside.
- Whipped Topping: In a separate mixing bowl, pour in the heavy whipping cream. Add the vanilla extract and whip with an electric mixer on medium speed until soft peaks form.
- Combine with Lemonade: Gently fold in about 1 cup of the lemonade mixture into the whipped cream until combined (this will give it a pink hue).
- Serve: To serve, fill glasses with ice cubes and pour the lemonade mixture, filling them about 3/4 full. Top each glass with a generous dollop of the whipped pink mixture.
- Garnish: Garnish with a few fresh raspberries on top and a slice of lemon on the rim of the glass.
Notes
- Presentation Tips: Serve the whipped pink lemonade in clear glasses to showcase the beautiful colors. You can also add a sprig of mint for an extra pop of color and freshness!
