Raspberry Driver
3.5 shots out of 5
Yes.........I am still soar from softball.
A year off is way too much!
Time to start working out these softball muscles and what better way to start.....then with a cocktail!
Tonight I turn to the Finest Call website for one of their recipes.
I gave tonight's cocktail 3.5 shots out of 5.
I was hoping to like this cocktail a lot more then I did, and I think I was hoping that because today had been a loooong day.
Basically what tonight's cocktail tastes like is a screw driver.....with a splash of raspberry flavoring.
Don't get me wrong, the raspberry puree does add a nice flavor, but I can still taste the screw driver hiding behind it.
If you're not in the mood for a fancy, sweet cocktail, then this just might be a good one to try.
Plus I think it's fun to put these purees in mixed cocktails instead of just blended ones.

Here is the recipe for a Raspberry Driver:
- 1oz vodka
- 1/2oz raspberry puree
- 3oz orange juice
In a tall glass filled with crushed ice add all of the ingredients above and give it a good quick stir. I stirred until my raspberry puree looked sort of blended in.
Here's to purees in mixed cocktails!
Cheers!!
