Ingredients

Method

Directions

1

Prepare the Blackberries

Rinse the fresh blackberries thoroughly under cold water to remove any dirt or impurities. Drain and set aside.

2

Make the Blackberry Syrup

In a medium saucepan, combine 2 cups of water and 1 cup of sugar. Heat over medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves completely.

3

Add Blackberries

Once the sugar is dissolved, add the rinsed blackberries to the saucepan. Cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the blackberries break down and the mixture thickens slightly.

4

Strain the Mixture

Remove the saucepan from heat. Using a fine mesh strainer, strain the blackberry mixture into a bowl, pressing down with a spoon to extract as much liquid as possible. Discard the solids.

5

Combine Ingredients

In a large pitcher, combine the strained blackberry syrup, 1 cup of fresh lemon juice, the remaining 2 cups of water, and 1 tsp of lemon zest. Stir well to combine.

6

Taste and Adjust

Taste the mixture and adjust sweetness if necessary by adding more sugar. Stir until fully dissolved.

7

Serve

Serve the blackberry lemon drink over ice, garnished with fresh mint leaves to taste. Enjoy!
