Ingredients
1 oz Canadian Club Whisky
1/3 oz lime juice
6 raspberries
Splash of cranberry juice
Dash of Angostura Bitters
Starfruit slice for garnish (optional)
Method
Start by placing ice in a martini glass to chill while making the drink. In a shaker glass, muddle the raspberries and fill with ice.
Add remaining ingredients and shake until well mixed. Discard the ice from the martini glass and strain the shaken ingredients into the now chilled martini glass. Place the slice of starfruit on the rim for garnish.
Tips
If starfruit is not available, placing three raspberries on a pick is a nice option.
You may double strain the shaken ingredients to remove the seeds from the martini if you prefer.
