Increase heat and boil for 3 minutes or so. Strain the raspberry mixture into a bowl, pressing on solids to extract as much liquid as possible; discard solids in strainer. Mix the lemon zest into the raspberry syrup in the bowl. Chill.
Stir the raspberry syrup, lemon juice, and sparkling water in large pitcher to blend. Fill 6 glasses with ice cubes. Pour raspberry lemonade into glasses. Add fresh raspberries to each glass, if desired. Garnish with lemon slices and serve.
