What you are aiming for — a Blue Raspberry 7 Energy off the board. The stand's Medium is 242 calories; this version comes in at 242.
A Blue Raspberry 7 Energy is a energy build. The energy builds are the simplest on the board — base plus syrup — which means the only thing to get right is the amount. Energy bases are already sweet, so start at half of what you would use in a fizz.

Ingredients
- 300 ml chilled energy base
- 1 tbsp blue raspberry syrup
- a cream float
- a lime wheel
- Ice
Equipment
- 16 oz glass
- Bar spoon
- Measuring jug
How to make it
- Fill a 16 oz glass with ice and pour in 300 ml of chilled energy base.
- Measure 1 tbsp blue raspberry syrup in — energy bases are already sweet, so start at half of what you think and taste before adding more.
- Stir once, gently, with a bar spoon.
- For the creamy version, float a cream float on top rather than stirring it in.
- Add a lime wheel.
- This one is caffeinated by design — check the total before you drink two.
Tips that actually matter
- Start at half the syrup you would use in a fizz and taste.
- Energy bases are pre-sweetened; this is the number one home mistake.
- Serve over a full glass of ice, immediately.
Variations
- Sugar-free blue raspberry energy.
- Add 1 tsp of coconut for a blue coconut energy.
- Frozen chiller: blend the whole thing with ice.
