Raspberry Splash on the Rocks

Alicia

It’s not very often that a cocktail is mixed up in our house.  After all, it’s my cousin, Mark, who is the cocktail expert in my extended family.  By the way, he has a fabulous cocktail blog which you should definitely check out.  Anyway, every now and then, my husband feels like making something a little extra special.

Enter “Raspberry Splash on the Rocks”.

Gin, Berry Juice, Raspberries, 1/2 lime, ice, water
Start with the gin. Use a good, quality gin like Hendrick’s.
This is about 2 ounces on ice.
Squeeze the 1/2 lime into the glass.
Add the berries.
Muddle the berries with the gin & lime. Basically, that means smush it all together.
Almost there!
Add the berry juice. We like Juicy Juice!
Add water, if desired. Or just start with more ice, and wait a bit for some to melt.
Delicious!
