Yes, I suggest following this method: Thaw 24 oz frozen raspberries in a colander in the sink to let excess water drain out. Alternatively, use 24 oz fresh raspberries. Add raspberries, ½ cup granulated sugar, 1 tsp lemon juice, and 2 tablespoons corn starch to the container of a high-powered blender. Blend until smooth and use in this recipe.
