A bright and balanced Blood Orange and Raspberry Mocktail made with fresh blood orange, raspberries, lemon, honey and black tea. Shaken with aquafaba or egg white for a silky foam, this alcohol-free sour is tart, fruity and refreshing without being overly sweet.

Instructions
Add the raspberries and honey syrup to a cocktail shaker and gently muddle.
Add the blood orange juice, lemon juice, aquafaba or egg white, salt and bitters, if using.
Dry shake vigorously for 15–20 seconds. Add ice and shake again until thoroughly chilled.Double strain.
Serve it two waysAs a sour: Strain into a chilled coupe and serve as is. You get a more concentrated, silky mocktail with the blood orange and raspberry front and centre.With soda: Strain over fresh ice into a highball or stemless glass and top with 30–60 ml soda water. I’d start with 30 ml and add more to taste. It becomes lighter and more refreshing without turning into flavoured sparkling water.
