What each ingredient does

Frozen raspberries: Provide the main fruit flavour, tartness and colour, and thicken the drink slightly when blended.
Apple juice: Adds mild sweetness and forms the liquid base of the drink.
Freshly squeezed orange juice: Adds acidity and bright citrus aroma that balances the sweetness.
