Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups blueberries
- 1 1/2 cups raspberries
- 1 1/2 cups blackberries
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 2 jalapenos, seeded, deveined and sliced (or leave in some seeds for extra spice)
- 1 lemon, juiced
- 6 cups sugar
- 6 cups lemon juice (about 30 lemons)
Instructions
- For the jalapeno-berry syrup: Put the blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, sugar, jalapenos and lemon juice in a saucepan. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring constantly, and then reduce the heat and simmer until thick, 20 to 25 minutes.
- Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh strainer and press on the fruit with a wooden spoon to get all of the liquid out. Set the berry syrup aside to cool.
- For the simple syrup: Mix the sugar with 6 cups water and stir until the sugar is completely dissolved.
- For the lemonade: Pour the jalapeno-berry syrup and lemon juice into a large vat. Add 6 cups of the simple syrup and 8 cups of cold water and stir to combine. Top up the container with plenty of ice before serving.

Delicious! Not spicy. I ended up making a half batch and using 2 jalapenos AND 5 habaneros and it was still only barely spicy. That said, it really was incredibly delicious and I’m already planning on making it again but with peaches and raspberries.
A little too sweet (and I LOVE sweet), but I’ll definitely make again with less sugar.
This sounds like it would be very expensive to make.
Ree,
This recipe is spot on!! Love all the flavors you’ve incorporated into this Lemonade. My family enjoyed it.
But, now what can I do with this yummy looking berry mixture?? I hate to waste it:(
