Raspberry Limeade – Low Carb and Gluten Free

We had some near record-breaking heat a few weeks ago and I found myself craving something really tart and refreshing. I adore all things lime and all things raspberry. I love the combination of the two. And sugar-free raspberry limeade is the perfect way to cool off. I am sure I could use a glass after my run tomorrow morning!

Instructions

1. In a medium pot, combine raspberries, 1 1/2 cups of the water, and sweetener. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer gently for 3 minutes.
2. Using an immersion blender, puree the berries. Alternatively, transfer to a blender or food processor to puree.
3. Set a fine mesh sieve over a bowl and pour puree into sieve. Let drain 30 minutes, pressing on berries to extract as much juice as possible.
4. Pour into a pitcher and add lime juice and remaining water. Refrigerate until chilled, about 2 hours.
5. Enjoy!!!
