Ingredients

• 250 g strawberries or raspberries, hulled, plus extra to garnish
• 150 g Sugar
• 240 ml fresh lemon juice (about 5–6 lemons), plus slices
• 1.2 l cold water (still or sparkling)
• Ice

Method

1. Blend the berries with the sugar and 250 ml of the water until completely smooth.
2. Pour through a fine sieve into a large jug, pressing with a spoon to leave the seeds behind.
3. Stir in the lemon juice and the rest of the water until the sugar has fully dissolved.
4. Taste and add more sugar or water as needed, then serve over ice with lemon slices and berries.

Tips

• If you use sparkling water, add it just before serving so it stays fizzy.
