Ingredients

2 cups fresh raspberries, plus more for garnish

3/4 cup sugar

2 2/3 cups grapefruit juice

1 750-ml bottle sparkling rosé, chilled

1/2 cup vodka

Grapefruit slices, for garnish

Directions

  1. Combine the raspberries, sugar and 3/4 cup water in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer, uncovered, until the raspberries begin to fall apart and the sugar dissolves, about 5 minutes. Strain the liquid through a fine-mesh strainer into a glass measuring cup, pressing the solids to release the juices. Discard the solids and let the syrup cool completely.
  2. 2. To serve, pour 2 tablespoons raspberry syrup into each of 8 champagne flutes. Add 1/3 cup grapefruit juice, then about 1/3 cup sparkling rosé to each flute. Top each with 1 tablespoon vodka and garnish with raspberries and grapefruit slices.
