Looking for the perfect refreshing summer drink to beat the heat? This Sparkling Raspberry & Mint Refresher is a vibrant, fruity, and incredibly easy beverage that captures the essence of summer in every sip. Whether you’re hosting a backyard BBQ, lounging on the patio, or simply craving a cool, non-alcoholic drink, this fizzy refresher is a guaranteed crowd-pleaser.

Why You’ll Love This Raspberry Mint Refresher

This easy summer drink recipe combines the bright tartness of fresh raspberries with the cooling freshness of mint leaves, all brought together with sparkling water for that irresistible fizz. It’s light, hydrating, and full of natural flavor – perfect for hot days when you want something more exciting than plain water.

A Refreshing Non-Alcoholic Drink Everyone Will Enjoy

One of the best things about this sparkling raspberry drink is its simplicity and adaptability. You can enjoy it as-is or add your own twist. Try muddling a few fresh raspberries in the glass before pouring to boost the berry flavor. Want an icy twist? Use frozen raspberries instead of ice cubes for a chilled, flavorful experience.

Customize Your Summer Sipper

This versatile refresher can be customized to your liking:

  • No sparkling water? Use club soda or plain water (but we highly recommend keeping the bubbles!).
  • Add more flavor: A splash of lime juice, a sprig of rosemary, or a handful of muddled blueberries take this drink to the next level.
  • Make it a mocktail: This makes a great base for non-alcoholic cocktails with a hint of sophistication.

Cheers to a Cool, Fizzy Summer

So, if you’re searching for a delicious non-alcoholic summer drink, this Sparkling Raspberry & Mint Refresher is just what you need. It’s more than a beverage—it’s a taste of summer sunshine in a glass.

    Pour 75 ml of Mint Syrup over the muddled raspberries in each glass.

  4. 4
    Top with Sparkling Water

    Fill each glass with sparkling water.

    Add ice cubes to fill the glasses.

  6. 6
    Garnish

    Garnish with a fresh mint sprig and a few extra raspberries.

Note
  • For a sweeter drink, increase the amount of simple syrup.
  • You can freeze raspberries for a frozen raspberry refresher - simply blend frozen raspberries with a little water and strain.
  • Experiment with other fruits like blueberries or strawberries.
