Cocktail Inspiration:
While making this cocktail, I was thinking of my dad making sun tea while barbecuing in the backyard, and you could always catch him drinking Arnold Palmers. I decided to make a raspberry lemonade because raspberries are the best fruit to pair with Jägermeister, in my opinion, and it just sounded so refreshing for these summer days ahead.
Anna Maye has been a bartender in the Reno area for the last 9 years. She has worn many different hats throughout the years, from beer tender, bar consultant to now a business owner. She currently hosts cocktail pop-ups and just finished building a cocktail bus for mobile catering called Ramblin’ Libations.
Anna Maye's Tips & Tricks
Feel free to add a little bit of soda water to tone down the sweetness, also this cocktail is very easy to make a large batch of for any summer party.
Raspberry Lemonade*
- 1 cup fresh lemon juice (4-6 lemons)
- 1/4lb raspberries
- 2 ½ cups water
- ½ cup sugar
Instructions: Combine half of the lemon juice and raspberries in a blender. Puree until smooth. Strain into pitcher. Add remaining lemon juice, sugar, and water and stir till sugar is dissolved. Adjust sugar to taste.
What Does Hospitality Mean To You Anna Maye?
To me, hospitality means ensuring every person who walks through my bar doors has the best time while there, regardless of what may have happened before they walked through the door. I like making people feel special, whether it's good conversations or making them signature cocktails. I enjoy making their day, and often we don’t realize one good interaction can do for someone!
