OK cool. Thanks! so I just bring it up to 160-165 for 15-20 seconds and that's it? Sounds pretty simple.

Just a note that if its the canned Raspberry puree then its already been sterilized.  If its the Oregon stuff (I got some from Noble a few years back) just open the can and dumped it in.  

I put it in Primary and promptly blew the top (not just the air lock) off the fermentor twice.  Definitely a secondary thing.
