Living with eosinophilic esophagitis means scrutinizing every label and second-guessing most packaged drinks, but this sparkling cooler is refreshingly straightforward. It's built entirely from fresh raspberries, real lemon juice, lemon zest, maple syrup, and sparkling water โ nothing hidden, nothing processed, nothing that raises red flags for a restricted diet. The raspberry-lemon syrup is cooked down on the stovetop and strained until silky smooth, which means no fruit solids or chunky bits that could be uncomfortable to swallow. What you're left with is a jewel-toned, bright, and beautifully tart syrup that pairs perfectly with the fizz of chilled sparkling water. It's the kind of drink that looks fancy enough for a dinner party but comes together with minimal effort and maximum peace of mind. Served over ice with a lemon slice and a single raspberry on the rim, it's as pretty as anything you'd order at a restaurant โ and you know exactly what went into every sip.

Combine the raspberries, maple syrup, water, and lemon zest in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally and pressing the raspberries gently with the back of a spoon, until the berries have broken down and the syrup is slightly thickened, about 8โ10 minutes.
Pour the syrup through a fine-mesh strainer into a heatproof bowl or measuring cup, pressing the solids firmly to extract all the liquid. Discard the solids. Let the strained syrup cool to room temperature, then refrigerate until fully chilled, at least 30 minutes.
