RASPBERRY CHAMPAGNE COCKTAIL

Steps:

• If you can't purchase fresh raspberry juice, make your own by blending fresh raspberries with water and sugar and straining to remove seeds. Fill ice cube trays with raspberry juice, garnishing each with a lemon twist and freeze until solid. To serve, place one raspberry cube in a champagne flute and fill with champagne.
