Raspberry Lemon Drop Martinis
The Raspberry Lemon Drop Martini is a fruity cocktail featuring muddled raspberries and sugar strained into a shaker with vodka, lemon-lime soda, and lemon juice. It is shaken with ice and served chilled in a martini glass garnished with fresh raspberries and lemon slices. The combination produces a sweet and tart drink with a smooth berry and citrus flavor.
Ingredients
- ¼ cup raspberries plus more for garnish, fresh
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 4 ounces vodka or your favorite quality vodka, red berry-flavored
- ¼ cup lemon-lime soda
- ¼ cup lemon juice plus lemon slices for garnish, fresh

Instructions
- Muddle the raspberries and sugar together in a small bowl. Press the puree through a fine mesh sieve over a cocktail shaker to remove seeds and release as much juice as possible.
