This vodka-laced, rich (but not overly sweet) raspberry cocktail is a crowd-pleaser

Gahhhhhhhhhhh!!! This should be lovely but it absolutely sucked (not lemons unfortunately). Like raspberry cough medicine with a hint of lemon, much too sweet. Is Luxardo Limoncello distinctive in some way that would take over this drink?

Too sweet and difficult to strain. will try again less sugar syrup. Nice fruity flavour though.

wow thats a really intense raspberry taste, very nice. i used narancello cuz i dont have lemon but i can definitely see how an acidic addition would make it better

This looks nice. Should you muddle the raspberries?

With very ripe raspberries, good ice and a brisk shake, you achieve good raspberry infusion without shaking. However, it's safer to muddle, so I have added this above. Thanks for bringing to my attention.
