I like making this one because it feels special but doesn’t take much effort. That pretty color and crisp taste? Always a crowd-pleaser.

Equipment

Measuring cup: I use this for the lemonade.
Cocktail shaker: Helps mix the raspberry and lemonade nicely.
Muddler: Super handy to gently mash the raspberries.

Fine mesh strainer: Keeps seeds and pulp out.
Stirring spoon: Regular spoon is fine, but a bar spoon stirs better.
Serving glasses: I go for flute glasses—looks fancier.

Ice cube tray: Chilled drinks are just better.
Jigger or small measuring tool: For the Prosecco and syrup, accuracy helps.
Small pitcher (optional): Makes it easy to mix bigger batches if you’ve got a group.

Ingredients

1 cup fresh raspberries about 5 ounces
1 tablespoon simple syrup or just plain sugar
1 cup lemonade fresh-squeezed or whatever’s handy
1 bottle 750 ml Prosecco, chilled
Ice cubes
Lemon slices for garnish
Raspberries for garnish
Fresh mint sprigs optional, if you’re feeling fancy

Instructions

Drop raspberries and simple syrup into your cocktail shaker.

Gently muddle them—just enough to get the juice out, don’t go wild.
Pour in the lemonade and toss in some ice cubes.
Shake it up for about 10 seconds.

Strain into a pitcher or straight into glasses.
Top each glass with chilled Prosecco.
Give it a gentle stir.

Garnish with a few raspberries and a lemon slice.
If you like, add a mint sprig on top.

Notes

I always use chilled ingredients—keeps the cocktail cold without watering it down too much. If you want it sweeter, just add a bit more simple syrup. For extra lemon kick, squeeze in a little more juice.

This recipe is easy to double or triple if you’re serving a bunch of people. I always add the Prosecco last so it keeps its fizz. Using a fine strainer is worth it—nobody wants seeds in their glass.

Fresh raspberries are best, but frozen work in a pinch. I usually taste before serving and adjust the syrup or lemon if it needs a tweak. For a party, I’ll mix the lemonade and raspberry base ahead, then add the Prosecco right before guests show up.

Tasting Notes

First sip? It’s bright and fresh—seriously wakes up your taste buds. The lemonade brings a tart pop that I really like.

The raspberries add a gentle sweetness. There’s also this light berry aroma that drifts up from the glass.

Texture Highlights:

Effervescent: The Prosecco bubbles make it lively and fun.

Smooth: It goes down easy, not syrupy at all.

I find it light enough that I can have another without feeling weighed down. The sweet-tart balance means it’s not cloying.

With each sip, the raspberry flavor seems to come through a little more. The lemon finish sticks around, keeping things crisp and refreshing.

The Prosecco really lifts the fruit flavors but doesn’t overpower them. Both raspberry and citrus stand out.

It’s a super refreshing cocktail—not too strong, which I appreciate in the heat. The gentle fizz makes it go down almost too easily.
