Whipped Pink Lemonade: A Refreshing and Delicious Summer Treat

Ingredients

• 1 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 4 cups cold water
• 1 cup heavy whipping cream
• 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 0.25 cup raspberry puree
• 1 Prise lemon slices for garnish
• 1 Prise fresh raspberries for garnish

Instructions

1. In a large pitcher, combine the freshly squeezed lemon juice and granulated sugar. Stir until the sugar is completely dissolved.
2. Add the cold water to the pitcher and stir well. Taste and adjust the sweetness or tartness by adding more sugar or lemon juice as desired. Chill in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes.
3. In a mixing bowl, add the heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Using an electric mixer, whip on medium speed until soft peaks form (about 3-5 minutes). Be careful not to over-whip, as you want it fluffy.
4. Gently fold the raspberry puree into the whipped cream until streaks remain, giving it a lovely pink color.
5. Fill glasses with the chilled pink lemonade, then top with a generous dollop of the whipped raspberry cream.
6. Finish with a lemon slice and a few fresh raspberries on top for a decorative touch.
