What each ingredient does
- Raspberries
- Provide the main fruit flavor and bright red color.
- Powdered sugar
- Adds sweetness and dissolves easily in the cold liquid, and it softens the ice texture.
The step that matters
Freezing to a rich consistency. Sugar lowers the freezing point of the mixture, so it stays partly slushy rather than freezing solid. Freezing it too long makes the ice hard and coarse, so check it while it is still spoonable.
