I wanted to make a lemon shake and got the idea to add raspberries, but I didn’t just want to throw whole berries into the mix. A few years ago I created this raspberry sauce I knew would be perfect for this so went ahead and whipped some of that up and then used a bit of it for the shakes. You will end up with extra sauce, but it is great over ice cream, on pancakes, or drizzled over cake, etc. Tonight I used sugar free/fat free pudding because it’s what I had on hand, but honestly I HATE them. I hate that fake sugar flavor and the feeling it leaves on my teeth, so unless you are dieting (and in that case you are likely aware of the issue and it doesn’t matter) I would suggest using the regular version.
