Ingredients for Raspberry Lemonade Pie

  • 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
  • ⅓ cup granulated sugar
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup fresh raspberries (plus extra for garnish)
  • 14 ounces sweetened condensed milk
  • ½ cup frozen raspberry lemonade concentrate, thawed
  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 8 ounces whipped topping (like Cool Whip), thawed
  • 1 tablespoon lemon zest
  • Fresh mint leaves (optional, for garnish)

How to Make Raspberry Lemonade Pie

Step 1: Prepare the Graham Cracker Crust

  1. In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and sugar. Pour in the melted butter and mix until the texture resembles wet sand.
  2. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish. Set aside in the freezer while you prepare the filling.

Step 2: Blend the Raspberry Lemonade Pie Filling

  1. In a blender or food processor, puree 1 cup of fresh raspberries until smooth. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve to remove seeds (optional for a smoother filling).
  2. In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until light and fluffy.
  3. Add the sweetened condensed milk, raspberry puree, thawed lemonade concentrate, and lemon zest. Beat until smooth and well combined.

Step 3: Fold and Assemble

  1. Gently fold in the thawed whipped topping until no streaks remain.
  2. Pour the filling into the prepared graham cracker crust. Smooth the top with a spatula.

Step 4: Chill and Serve

  1. Refrigerate the Raspberry Lemonade Pie for at least 4 hours or until set (overnight is even better for easy slicing).
  2. Before serving, garnish with extra fresh raspberries and mint leaves if desired.

Notes for the Perfect Raspberry Lemonade Pie

  • If you prefer a sweeter filling, add 1-2 tablespoons of powdered sugar to taste.
  • For best results, use full-fat cream cheese for a creamier texture. For more pie tips, check out this no-bake guide.
  • Frozen raspberries can be used if fresh are unavailable—just thaw and drain before pureeing.

Raspberry Lemonade Pie FAQ

Can I make Raspberry Lemonade Pie ahead of time?
Absolutely! This pie is perfect for making a day in advance; just keep it chilled until ready to serve.
Can I use bottled lemon juice instead of lemonade concentrate?
You can, but the concentrate adds sweetness and a stronger lemon flavor. If substituting, add ¼ cup fresh lemon juice and adjust sugar to taste.
What if I don't have whipped topping?
You can use homemade whipped cream (about 2 cups whipped) in place of store-bought topping for a fresher taste.
