Tuesday Thyme: Raspberry Limeade

Raspberries were so cheap a few weeks ago and I found this recipe for Raspberry Limeade. I was having a hard time juicing the limes but didn't want to pull out the juicer so I made Sam do it. His hand hurt by the end of it so next time we'll use the juicer. But we both really liked it! I especially loved the pulp. Delicious.

  2. Oooo! I'm going to make this but since raspberries are not on sale here in AZ i'll use frozen. Hope that doesn't ruin it.
