Lemon Raspberry Sangria

Step 1

Prepare raspberry simple syrup by combining water and sugar in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally until sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat, add 1/2 cup raspberries, and cover. Set aside to cool. (*optional: you may want to muddle the raspberries to release additional flavor and color. If you do so, simply strain using a fine mesh strainer before adding to the sangria.)

Step 2

In a small pitcher, combine wine, raspberry lemonade, vodka, and limoncello.

Step 3

Stir in cooled simple syrup to taste.

Step 4

Add remaining raspberries and lemon slices; refrigerate until ready to serve.
