Refreshing Raspberry Mint Apple Cider Vinegar Mocktail

When your eyes are as parched for beauty as your throat is for refreshment, gather some raspberries and mint, and get to muddlin’!

This drink is perfect as is, but it might be even more delicious with a titch of vodka or gin. So, whether you want to keep it as a mocktail or you feel like getting your cocktail on, this is the drink for you.

Ingredients + substitutions

To make this delicious mocktail, you’ll need:

• 2 tablespoons fresh raspberries
• 2 mint leaves
• Ice
• ¼ cup cranberry apple raspberry juice
• 1 teaspoon lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
• 1 cup seltzer water

Substitutions + tips

• Fresh raspberries: If they aren’t in season or you just don’t have them handy, you can sub in frozen raspberries instead. As far as I’m concerned – you don’t have “frozen fruit.” You have “raspberry ice cubes” in your mocktail! Just let them thaw slightly in the bottom of the glass, and then muddle them like you would fresh raspberries. And then sit back and enjoy the chill!
• Cranberry apple raspberry juice: Feel free to just sub in 1/8 cup each of cranberry and apple juices – the raspberry juice will be mostly taken care of by the raspberries themselves. If you have to only pick one juice, I’d do apple so you don’t get hit with too much sour from the combo of cranberry, lemon, and raspberry.
• Bigger batches: A-ok! Feel free to triple or quadruple the recipe for a crowd! And you can mix everything together, just add ice before serving.
