Notes
-
Make it ahead: You can prep the base (raspberries, lemonade, vodka) a few hours in advance. Just add club soda when ready to serve for max fizz.
-
Want a mocktail? Skip the vodka and swap club soda for lemon-lime soda or sparkling water.
-
Try variations: Swap raspberries with strawberries or blackberries. Use pink lemonade for a color pop!
-
Make it sweeter: Add a splash of simple syrup, honey, or agave if your lemonade is on the tart side.
-
Batch tip: Multiply the recipe for parties! Serve in a pitcher or drink dispenser—just keep the club soda on the side.
