Ingredients

Directions

  1. Rinse the fresh raspberries under cold water and pat dry if necessary.
  2. Place the raspberries and unsweetened white grape juice into the container of an electric blender.
  3. Secure the lid and blend on high speed until the mixture is completely smooth and liquid.
  4. Line a fine-mesh sieve with several layers of dampened cheesecloth and place it over a bowl.
  5. Pour the blended mixture through the cheesecloth to strain out the seeds and pulp, reserving the clear liquid.
  6. Squeeze the cheesecloth gently to extract as much liquid as possible without forcing pulp through.
  7. Return the strained raspberry-grape liquid to the blender container.
  8. Add 1 1/2 cups of raspberry sherbet (or a vegan alternative), 1/4 cup of water, and 1 tablespoon of lemon juice to the blender.
  9. Add 10 ice cubes to the blender container.
  10. Blend on high until the mixture is frothy, creamy, and well-chilled.
  11. Pour immediately into glasses and garnish with fresh mint sprigs if desired.
