- Adjust sweetness to your taste: Some people like their raspberry sour to be sweeter, while others prefer a more tart taste. Adjust the amount of simple syrup to your liking.
- Chill your glass: A chilled glass will keep your drink cool for longer and prevent it from getting watered down too quickly.
- Make your own Raspberry Simple Syrup. Making your own raspberry syrup provides better flavor and quality and you have more control over the sweetness level. It can be used in a variety of cocktails or drinks such as a Raspberry Martini.
