→ Main components

01 - 1 cup of water
02 - 1 cup of granulated sugar
03 - 1 cup of juice from fresh lemons (you'll need around 6 to 8 of them)
04 - 1 tablespoon of syrup with blue raspberry flavor
05 - 4 cups of chilled water
06 - Optional: A few drops of blue food dye
07 - Ice cubes
08 - Fresh lemon slices and raspberries for decoration

# Instructions:

01 - Mix the sugar and 1 cup of water in a small pot. Cook it over medium heat, stirring often until the sugar has fully melted into the water. Turn off the heat and let the syrup cool down for a bit.
02 - Pour the fresh lemon juice, cooled syrup, blue raspberry syrup, and 4 cups of cold water into a big pitcher. Stir until it's all blended well.
03 - Optional: Drip a little blue food coloring into the lemonade if you'd like it more vibrant. Slowly add more until it looks perfect to you.
04 - Give it a try and tweak the flavor as needed. Add extra sugar or water if you'd like it sweeter or milder.
05 - Pop the lemonade into the refrigerator and let it chill for at least half an hour, or until you're ready to serve it.
06 - When it's time to enjoy, pour the cold lemonade into glasses filled with ice. Add fresh raspberries and a lemon slice on top if you'd like!
