Berries

Red Raspberry Rascal Cocktail

Happy Wednesday! How is your week going so far? Been really busy here, now that school is out for the summer!

Dunno ’bout you but I sure crave fruity cocktails this time of year. Raspberries are some of my all time favorite berries. I dig their sweet ‘n tangy flavor. Besides they are super pretty to gaze upon before you pop ’em in your mouth.

This Red Raspberry Rascal Cocktail will have you happily sipping the summer away!

Funny when I was shooting these cocktails….I was trying to balance everything on my new “Table Top” piece of tin ceiling.

Things kept sliding around. Spilling a bit. Making the shoot a bit more challenging. But fun!

Dig my new Gold Ribbon Highball glasses? Vegas meets vintage chic.

They are from the fabulous MacKenzie-Childs.

To make these cocktails super full of raspberry flavor I used frozen raspberries and boiled them down into a juice.

A splash of Rhubarb Bitters gives a fun flavor boost.

  1. Oooh! This cocktail…and, those MC glasses? I dig, I dig! Love the vintage vibe in your photography, Marla. I am just enamored with Mid-century design. The Big Lug and I call raspberries “snozberries” as a nod to Gene Wilder as Willie Wonka. (Adore Gene.) Now, we have a wicked Snozberry Cocktail to enjoy! Thank you for sharing! xo

      1. LOL, Marla! I totally should concoct a Snozberry Cocktail in honor of Gene and Willie Wonka! I’m totally nutty for berries just as you are and I hope you’ll try my blueberry cobbler recipe (posted on Monday). The secret is in the buttery biscuit crumble topping–made rich without milk and a beaten egg. The topping is best described as a cross between pie pastry, a biscuit and shortbread sugar cookie with a whisper of vanilla. You and your family will love it! xo

  2. I love how you came up with the name! So cute! Definitely a fan of this boozy drink. I think its awesome too how much fun you had with the photo shoot. You can tell how much fun you have! Your photos are gorgeous as always πŸ™‚
