__Make your own frozen citrus concentrate: __This quick, easy recipe for citrus concentrate makes the perfect amount for the pies.

Heat 3/4 cup sugar and 1/2 cup hot water in a saucepan until the sugar dissolves. Stir in 2/3 cup strained fresh lemon or lime juice. Transfer to a loaf pan or other freezer-safe container. Cover and freeze until solid.

Instructions

Preheat oven to 375°. Coat a 9-inch springform pan with nonstick spray.

For the crust, process vanilla wafers and mint in a food processor until sandy. With the machine running, drizzle in butter and continue processing until mixture clings together.

Press crumbs into bottom and half to three-quarters of the way up the sides of the prepared pan. Tamp down crumbs with the bottom of a measuring cup.

Bake crust until browned and set, 810 minutes. Remove pan from oven and let cool completely.

For the sauce, purée raspberries and sugar. Strain mixture through a fine mesh sieve; discard seeds. Bring to a boil in a saucepan over medium-high heat.

Combine water and cornstarch in a small bowl for the slurry. Whisk slurry into boiling raspberry mixture. Boil 1 minute to thicken slightly and eliminate cornstarch taste; transfer to a bowl and chill.

For the filling, beat cream, sugar, and vanilla in a bowl with a hand mixer on medium speed to stiff peaks.

Whisk together concentrate and condensed milk in a separate bowl, just until combined.

Fold whipped cream into the concentrate mixture; transfer to cooled crust.

Drizzle ¼ cup cold raspberry sauce over filling. Swirl a skewer or knife through the sauce to marble. Cover pie with plastic wrap and freeze until solid, 8–24 hours. Thaw pie 30 minutes in the refrigerator before serving.
