Summer Champagne Punch

• ⅓ cup sugar
• ⅓ cup water
• ¾ cup lime juice, preferably freshly squeezed
• ½ cup vodka
• 2 cups tonic water
• 1/3 cup Rose Balsamic
• 2 cups raspberries
• 1 lime, sliced
• 1 bottle Champagne or sparkling white wine

1. In a small pot, bring the sugar and water to a boil over medium heat. Stir to make sure the sugar dissolves. Let cool to room temperature.

3. Just before you’re ready to serve, add the Champagne. Serve chilled.
