The Best Raspberry Martini Recipe

The best Raspberry Martini recipe combines citrus vodka, Chambord, cranberry juice, and a sparkling finish for a refreshing cocktail. Raspberry vodka martini has the perfect fresh raspberry taste for an easy drinking cocktail you’ll love! 

Ingredients in a Raspberry Martini Cocktail

• Citrus Vodka – I prefer Stoli Citrus, but there are a number of quality versions on the market. Effen Citrus, Absolut, and Smirnoff make great alternatives.
• Chambord – This is a quality raspberry liqueur, but it can be pricey. Use Dekuper Razzmatazz for a more affordable option.
• Cranberry Juice – For best flavor use 100% cranberry juice instead of cranberry juice cocktail.
• Simple Syrup – Gives a touch of sweetness to the drink. To make simply combine equal parts water and sugar and heat until sugar is dissolved. 
• Prosecco – I love adding a prosecco floater to martinis, such as in the Blackberry Martini, because it gives a bright, sparkly finish. It may be omitted or use lemon lime soda in its place. 
• Fresh Raspberries – Some are shaken with the cocktail to give an extra boost of raspberry flavor. Serve with a raspberry garnish as well. 

Can I Use Different Flavored Vodka?

This martini recipes uses citrus vodka since lemon and raspberry is such a sublime combination! However, alternative vodka flavors may be substituted. 

Use plain vodka, such as Tito’s, chocolate vodka, or raspberry vodka in place of the citrus.
