Instructions
- Prepare Raspberry Mixture: In a blender, combine the raspberries, lemon juice, sugar, water, lemon zest, and a pinch of salt. Blend until smooth.
- Strain Mixture: Pour the raspberry mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl to remove the seeds. Use a spatula to press the mixture through the sieve.
