Method
1. Prepare the glass (optional):Lightly wet the rim of a martini or coupe glass with lemon juice and dip in red sugar to create a “bloody” rim. Set aside.
2. Mix the cocktail:
Fill a cocktail shaker with ice. Add vodka, raspberry liqueur, cranberry juice, and a small splash of lemon juice (if using). Shake well until chilled.
3. Serve:
Strain into the prepared glass. Drop in 1–2 Opies Cocktail Cherries for a dramatic finish. For extra flair, drizzle a small spoonful of cherry syrup into the drink to create a “blood” effect.
