* Add the cannabis tincture (10mg per glass) directly into the muddled fruit base.
* Stir the fruit mixture thoroughly for 30 seconds to ensure the tincture is integrated with the juices.
* Fill the glasses to the brim with crushed ice.

* Stir gently with a long spoon to bring the muddled fruit up through the ice.
* Garnish with fresh raspberries and a sprig of rosemary.
CHEF TIPS:
Rosemary Aroma: Quickly run a flame over the garnish rosemary sprig for a few seconds before serving to release a smoky, aromatic scent that enhances the first sip.
Crushed Ice: Using crushed ice is traditional for a Caipirinha style as it dilutes slowly and keeps the muddled fruit cold and suspended.
Texture: If you prefer a smoother drink, you can muddle the fruit in a shaker and strain it over fresh ice, though the rustic muddled look is part of the charm.
Serve immediately. Enjoy the Raspberry Rosemary Caipirinha responsibly 🍓🌿
