Make raspberry ice-cubes to chill this drink ahead of time by placing raspberries in an ice-cube tray, topping up with water and freezing overnight.
Children aged 4+ can help to wash and hull the fruit and then push them through the sieve. You may have to finish this, as it takes a while to get all the pulp through the sieve, leaving only the pips.
Preparation time: 20 mins
Serves 4
200g raspberries
100g castor sugar
100ml water
2 lemons, juiced
