Equipment

1 Small Pot
1 Fork or Potato Masher
1 Hand Blender
1 Fine Mesh Sieve
1 Glasses or Bowls

Ingredients

1.5 Cups Water
1 Cup Raspberries fresh or frozen
2 Tablespoons Lemon Juice Freshly squeezed
½ teaspoon stevia powder
Ice shaved or crushed, for serving

US Customary - Metric

Instructions

Measure the water, raspberries, lemon juice, and stevia, and have your pot, masher, blender, and sieve ready.
Simmer everything for 10 minutes while crushing the berries, blend until smooth, then strain to remove seeds.
Cool the syrup completely, pour over shaved or crushed ice, and serve immediately.

Notes

Use a glass bowl rather than a plastic one to cool the syrup, as glass retains the cold more evenly once you move it to the fridge.
Press the sieve gently rather than hard to keep the syrup clear and free of any pulp that would cloud the finished color.
Freeze leftover syrup in an ice cube tray for up to two months, so you always have a single serving ready without defrosting the whole jar.
If you want a more textured syrup with a natural icy bite, skip the straining step and pour the unstreded syrup directly over the ice.
