2 oz. Brush Creek vodka
1 oz. Cranberry juice
½ oz. Fresh lemon juice
¾ oz. Raspberry syrup
Start by making the raspberry syrup—simmer equal parts fresh raspberries, sugar, and water for 10 minutes. Strain it (don’t press those berries!) and let it cool.
Add Brush Creek Vodka, your homemade raspberry syrup, lemon juice, cranberry juice with ice in a cocktail shaker. Shake until cold.
Strain into martini glasses and garnish with fresh raspberries on a skewer. Cheers!
