Step 1: Muddle the raspberries
Place fresh raspberries in a cocktail shaker or glass and gently muddle to release their juice, but avoid crushing the seeds too much for a smoother texture.

Step 2: Add limoncello and lemon juice
Pour in 2 oz of chilled limoncello and ½ oz of fresh lemon juice. Add simple syrup if you prefer a sweeter drink.

Step 3: Fill with ice
Add ice cubes to the shaker or glass until about three-quarters full.

Step 4: Shake gently or stir
If using a shaker, give it a gentle shake to mix the flavors well without bruising the raspberries too much. If making directly in the glass, stir gently.

Step 5: Top with prosecco or sparkling water
Strain the mixture into a large wine glass or highball glass filled with fresh ice. Top with 3 oz of prosecco for a classic spritz or sparkling water for a lighter version.

Step 6: Garnish and serve
Add a few whole raspberries, a sprig of fresh mint, and a lemon slice or twist for an eye-catching finish. Serve immediately and enjoy!
