We ran Some Errands this afternoon, which included observing that there were a lot of decidedly cut-price raspberries, so I Persuaded A to get them for me (which, to be fair, didn't take much persuasion), and -- well, they were sufficiently ripe that they'd started disintegrating and therefore leaking.
Ergo into the jug: the juice of two large lemons; all the raspberry drainings plus a few of the berries themselves (yes I know they're not botanically berries); a hefty whack of sugar; some mint leaves; and a full SodaStream bottle of water.
I have always historically been disappointed and a little suspicious about my attempts at lemonade, though I'm not entirely sure what I was doing differently and wrong (probably just too little sugar, if the truth be known), so there you go, there's my achievement of the day.
(It being the UK's One Day Of Summer, we had a late-lunch-or-possibly-early-dinner consisting of burgers and fried onions and very basic salad and slightly ridiculous relishes, with the lemonade to go with, and lo, it was good.)
