Method
In a large glass pitcher, add your fresh raspberries and the slices of lemon and lime.
Pour the raspberry vodka over the fruit and use a wooden spoon to very lightly press down on a few of the berries to release their juices without turning them into mush.
Pour in the chilled bottle of Moscato and give it a gentle stir to incorporate the vodka and fruit flavors.
Cover the pitcher and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the fruit to infuse the wine.
Just before you are ready to serve, pour in the chilled lemon-lime soda for that signature fizz.
Pour into ice-filled glasses, ensuring everyone gets a few pieces of booze-soaked fruit, and garnish with a sprig of fresh mint.
Notes
Freeze half of your raspberries before starting; they act like flavorful ice cubes that won't water down your sangria.
If you find the drink too sweet, swap the lemon-lime soda for a plain club soda or sparkling mineral water.
For a deeper color, use a Pink Moscato which adds a lovely rose hue to the pitcher.
Don't skip the refrigeration time; the flavors really need that hour or two to marry properly.
