Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup fresh raspberries
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 750 ml sparkling wine or champagne
- 4 leaves mint leaves (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Rinse the fresh raspberries under cold water and pat them dry with a paper towel.
In a small bowl, combine the raspberries, granulated sugar, and lemon juice. Use the back of a fork or a muddler to gently mash the raspberries until they release their juices but still have some texture. Set aside.
In a separate mixing bowl, combine the heavy cream and vanilla extract. Whip the mixture using a hand mixer or whisk until soft peaks form. Be careful not to overwhip; you want the cream to be light and airy.
Divide the raspberry mixture evenly among four champagne flutes or dessert glasses, creating a layer at the bottom.
Carefully pour sparkling wine or champagne over the raspberry layer, filling each glass about three-quarters full.
Spoon a dollop of the whipped vanilla cream on top of the sparkling wine in each glass.
Garnish with fresh mint leaves if desired, and serve immediately. Enjoy your Raspberry Royale!
