Notes
This recipe can be easily scaled up for larger batches. Prepare the base mixture in advance and shake with ice just before serving.
For a frozen version, blend all ingredients with 1 cup of ice until smooth. This creates a slushy texture perfect for hot days.
Try using frozen raspberries if fresh ones aren't available. They'll help keep the drink cold and add a nice texture.
