Make these preparations before you start the machine.

1
Combine the shrub base
Add the raspberry juice, simple syrup, apple cider vinegar, fresh mint infusion, lime juice, and water to a large pitcher or container.
2
Mix thoroughly
Stir until the syrup is fully dissolved into the juices and the mixture tastes evenly tart, sweet, and minty.
3
Freeze to texture
Pour the chilled mixture into your slush machine and freeze until thick, icy, and pourable.
4
Serve cold
Dispense into glasses and serve right away, garnishing with raspberries or mint sprigs if desired.

Chill the raspberry juice, mint infusion, lime juice, and vinegar before mixing so the drink freezes more evenly.
Stir the mixture well before adding it to the machine; the syrup and vinegar should be fully incorporated.
For a polished finish, serve with the reserved raspberries or mint sprigs noted for garnish if you have them on hand.
If making ahead, keep the mixed base refrigerated and stir again before freezing.
