Ingredients
- 1.5 cups fresh raspberries
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
- 0.5 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup sparkling water
- 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup ice cubes
- 4 leaves fresh mint leaves (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Place 1 cup of fresh raspberries in a blender along with the granulated sugar and fresh lemon juice, and blend until smooth.
Step 2
Strain the raspberry mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl to remove seeds. Discard the seeds and set the smooth purée aside.
Step 3
Rinse the blender and add the heavy cream, vanilla extract, and half of the strained raspberry purée. Blend on low speed until combined and slightly frothy.
Step 4
Fill two tall glasses with ice cubes, dividing them equally.
Step 5
Pour the remaining raspberry purée over the ice in both glasses, distributing evenly.
Step 6
Top each glass with 1/2 cup of sparkling water and then gently layer the cream mixture over the top by pouring it slowly over the back of a spoon.
Step 7
Stir gently to create a marbled effect or leave as a layered presentation, based on your preference.
Step 8
Finish with a few fresh raspberries and mint leaves as garnish on each glass, and serve immediately.
