Prepare your garnish (I like to do three Raspberry's on a cocktail skewer
Fill your measuring cup with cool water
Add ice to your shaker
Add ice and cool water to your martini glass (set it aside)

To your shaker add:
4 1/2 oz of Vodka (three Jiggers)
1 1/2 oz of cool water (one Jigger)
2 or 3 small scoops of Raspberry Sorbet ( if using a traditional ice cream scoop the measurement is: 1ish scoop)

The martini is little tart, a little sweet and most certainty fresh and more importantly refreshing!

We hope you love it and will share it with friends and family.
