- 8-10 Fresh Raspberries
- 1 Lime quartered
- 8-10 Fresh Mint Leaves
- 1-2 tsp Sweetener of Choice simple syrup, agave, etc., optional
- 4-6 oz Sparkling Water or Club Soda
- Ice
Place the raspberries, lime wedges, mint leaves, and optional sweetener into a sturdy highball glass.
Muddle together for about 1 minute, pressing and twisting to release the juice from the raspberries and lime, and the aromatic oils from the mint.
Top the glass with sparkling water and stir gently once to combine.
Fill the glass completely with ice. Garnish with an extra mint sprig and a lime wheel, if desired.

No Muddler? A wooden spoon works perfectly well on the back.
