Instructions

Add the milk to a high-speed blender.
Add the frozen raspberries and fresh lemon juice.
Add the ice cubes and fine sea salt.
Blend on low for 10 seconds, then add the vanilla extract, increase to high and blend for 35–50 seconds, until completely smooth.
Check the consistency and adjust by blending in 1–2 tablespoons additional milk if too thick, or a few extra ice cubes or frozen raspberries if too thin.
Pour into a 16-ounce glass and serve immediately.

Tips

Use fresh lemon juice rather than bottled for brighter flavor. For a dairy-free option, substitute milk with almond or oat milk.
