The simple syrup infused with raspberry liqueur and lemon juice takes this from ordinary to absolutely delicious, and honestly, the whole thing is incredibly budget friendly since seasonal fruit is usually inexpensive. Top it all with a dollop of whipped cream and you've got a dessert that tastes like summer in a bowl.
