by

FAQ

How do you fix sour raspberries?

You don’t need a lot to get the berries rocking; a quarter- to a half-cup of juice or booze, and about double the amount of sugar, is all you need. Add any extra flavoring agent you like—lemon zest, bruised lemongrass, fresh mint, or ground baking spices, like cinnamon and ginger, are excellent options.
