What says summer the way raspberries and lemon do? This mini cocktail calls for raspberry-flavored vodka, which you can purchase, or make your own, by adding fresh raspberries to vodka in a large container and letting it sit for several days. Strain the vodka back into the original bottle. (We like to make our own when a company has chemically created the raspberry flavor; some companies care enough to use the flowers or fruit from the plants to make the real thing, including Hangar Vodka.
