We like to use the infused water for these drinks because it cuts down on the added sugar. For sweeter drinks, you can use lemonade instead and make raspberry lemonade vodka slushies or use another fruit that you like.
You can also make non-alcoholic slushies and leave out the vodka. However, you may need to add more water to get the right consistency if you make virgin ones.
FAQ
Can you use fresh raspberries?
It’s better to use frozen fruit to get the best frosty slushy texture.
Can you another kind of alcohol?
Frozen slushy drinks work with a few different kinds of alcohol, so you could try white rum or tequila if you don’t like vodka. Or you could make a wine slushy with white wine and frozen fruit.
Can you make them ahead?
Raspberry vodka slushy drinks are not great to make ahead because they will melt and won’t be slushy if you don’t serve them right away. If you like raspberry vodka cocktails, these vodka slushies are a great choice. Cold, refreshing, and fruity – they’re like a vacation in a glass! Enjoy!
