Ingredients

  • 5 fresh or frozen raspberries
  • 1 ½ tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 ounce vodka
  • 1 ounce limoncello
  • 0.5 ounce Simple Syrup (optional, adjust to taste)
  • Club soda or lemon-lime soda

Instructions

  1. Start by gathering all your ingredients, ensuring you have fresh raspberries and lemon juice on hand.
  2. Place five or more raspberries in a cocktail shaker, or if using frozen raspberries, make sure they are slightly thawed.
  3. Using a muddler or the back of a spoon, gently crush the raspberries to release their juices and enhance their flavor.
  4. Add 1 ½ tablespoons of lemon juice to the shaker. Freshly squeezed lemon juice is recommended for the best flavor.
  5. Pour in 1 ounce of vodka and 1 ounce of limoncello to bring the delightful citrusy and fruity elements to your cocktail.
  6. If you prefer a sweeter cocktail, add 0.5 ounce of simple syrup. Adjust the sweetness to your taste by adding more or less as desired.
  7. Secure the lid on the cocktail shaker and shake vigorously for about 10-15 seconds to combine the flavors and chill the drink.
  8. Strain the mixture into a chilled cocktail glass filled with ice. This will keep your drink refreshingly cold.
  9. Top off your cocktail with club soda or lemon-lime soda to add a delightful effervescence and a fizzy finish.
  10. For the perfect finishing touch, garnish your Limoncello Raspberry Cocktail with a lemon twist or an extra raspberry, both for visual appeal and added aroma.
