“A freshly squeezed, fashionable, and fruity non-alcoholic beverage. A refreshing burst of Mint with Berries to sweeten the deal, it has an exquisite aroma.”
While shopping I came across some pale pink and yellow colored raspberries and immediately thought to make this drink since it matched the in-game art so well. This drink is made with a homemade raspberry, mint, and lime syrup and has a sweet berry flavor and can be adjusted for desired sweetness by adding more or less syrup to the club soda. It is a light non-alcoholic drink that is best enjoyed chilled and would be great on a hot summer day. Raspberries that are a regular red color will give a darker, more purple color in the final drink.
