    Three red slushy cocktails in glasses garnished with raspberries and lemon peel.

    Vodka + berries + lemons = summer fun

    It's hot and you and your friends just NEED a refreshing frozen drink to get the party started!

    Enter my Boozy Frozen Raspberry Lemonade Cocktail! It's a tart mix of freshly squeezed lemon juice, frozen raspberries, and vodka takes seconds to blend together so the party never stops.

    You can totally go wild at your party and serve some of my other frozen cocktails like a refreshing mango margarita or a batch of classy frozen mimosas.

    There's nothing wrong with a little variety, or just stick with this berry-packed goodness!

    A few ingredient shoutouts!

    Here's the deal... this recipe doesn't have a ton of ingredients and ultimately you'll want to use products you already have to keep your budget happy but there are a couple of things to keep in mind when blending up this beauty of a cocktail!

    • Fresh lemons
      • I always test my recipes with fresh lemon juice. I'm lucky that I live in Los Angeles, where I can get them all the time, but if you only have access to the bottled stuff, no problem! 😀 Just make sure that you like the flavor of the store-bought stuff!
      • BTW, if you go for the bottled stuff you'll miss out on the lemon zest, but that's a-okay! You'll just miss out on a little bit of zip.
    • Raspberries
      • Frozen berries are a must for that awesome slushy texture. During recipe development, I did make this with pre-frozen raspberries and raspberries that I purchased fresh then froze. Both totally work, but I do prefer the pre-frozen stuff because they are often picked when they are super ripe!

    Pro Tip!

    • Ultimately, I don't care if you use pre-packaged or fresh as long as you are happy with the results!

    Let's make this summery, boozy beauty of drink!

    Raspberries, lemon zest, and clear liquid in a blender.
    Step 1: Just toss all the ingredients into a blender!
