    Ingredients Needed for Raspberry Lemonade Summer Cocktail

    See printable recipe card below for exact ingredient amounts and step by step directions.

    • Malibu Rum– this is a popular brand of Carribean Rum and has a coconut flavor to it! Sweet, tropical, and often used in pina coladas and my Strawberry Daiquiri’s
    • Raspberry Lemonade– you can use pre-made lemonade found at the grocery store such as Simply Made. To save on calories, I like to use Crystal Light

    Variations

    • For Strawberry Lemonade Cocktails, use strawberry lemonade in place of the raspberry
    • To make Blueberry Lemonade Cocktails, use regular lemonade and add in fresh blueberries
    • Add fresh raspberries to each glass before serving
    • Garnish each glass with a lemon slice for a fun citrus addition
    • Squeeze a fresh lemon into the glass for an added lemon juice addition

    How to make Raspberry Lemonade Cocktail

    1. Fill two glasses with ice.
    2. Add a shot worth (more or less depending on preference) of Malibu Rum to each glass.
    3. Fill glass the rest of the way full of Raspberry Lemonade.
    4. Stir and serve!!

    Tips and Storage

    • If you have a cocktail shaker, you can add the ingredients from each glass into it and shake until combined. This chills the drink quickly and you won’t have to use as much ice.
    • To save on time, you can make this cocktail in a pitcher and keep in refrigerator until ready to serve/enjoy.
    • If preparing ahead of time, keep in refrigerator for up to 1 week.
    • Pink Sanding Sugar is a tasty addition to the rim prior to filling with ingredients.
    • You can also use raspberry lemonade and raspberry vodka if you don’t have Malibu Rum on hand.
