This is a delightful punch to serve guests in the summer, when mint and raspberries are fresh. But because I have lots of mint, I like to serve this year-round.

Ingredients

  • 9 cups water, divided
  • 1 to 1-1/2 cups coarsely chopped fresh mint
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 3 packages (10 ounces each) frozen sweetened raspberries
  • 2-1/4 cups lemonade concentrate, undiluted (18 ounces)
  • Ice cubes

Directions

  1. In a large saucepan, bring 3 cups water, mint and sugar to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 10-15 minutes. Stir in the raspberries, lemonade concentrate and remaining water. Refrigerate overnight.
  2. Strain raspberry mixture, reserving liquid. Press berries and mint through a sieve; discard seeds and mint. Combine raspberry juice with the reserved liquid. Serve over ice.
