Now, the star of our Raspberry Fizz is of course, the fresh raspberries. They lend an all-natural sweetness and a punch of fruity flavor. If fresh raspberries are not available, frozen varieties can be considered as substitutes. The lemon juice and sugar counterbalance the tartness of raspberries perfectly. Now comes the vodka – it sets the perfect stage for our tangy-party.
How To Make Raspberry Fizz
- In the cocktail shaker, muddle the raspberries with the sugar. If you don’t have a muddler, the back of a sturdy spoon will suffice.
- Add in the lemon juice and vodka. Secure the lid and shake well.
- Strain the mix into a glass full of ice and top with soda water. Give the drink a gentle stir.
