Delicious, definitely quite sweet but in a balanced way. The red fruit really shines through. It's worth noting that frozen raspberries work very well if you give them just a little time to thaw; it's probably not as good as fresh, but more accessible outside raspberry season. Thank you for the recipe!

Do you muddle the raspberries or just shake them?

With ripe raspberries, good ice and a hard shake there is no need to muddle first.

Go easy on the bitters, and this is a complex and rewarding Martini-style cocktail
