Rub the edge of your glass with just enough lime juice to wet the rim, then dip in pure maple sugar. Separately, in a cocktail shaker filled with ice, shake together 5 oz. cherry juice, 2 tbsp. maple syrup, and the juice from 1 lime. (You can add a couple of shots of vodka, too, if desired!). Fill the cocktail glass with ice and pour the cherry cocktail in until it's about half full, leaving room at the top for sparkling water and heart-shaped ice cubes. Garnish with fresh raspberries on a cocktail pick.

Place 5 cherries (roughly chopped) and 1 lime (quartered) in a glass. Add a little sweetener, if desired. Muddle together for about 1 minute. If you don't have a muddler, use the back end of a wooden spoon (the idea is to get things small enough to fit through a straw). Clap 6-8 mint leaves together in your hand to release the scent, then add to the glass. Press gently with a muddler a few times. Add ice and top with your choice of sparkling drink. Garnish with lime wheels, mint, and/or extra cherries.
