Blackberry Mint Cocktail

I came up with this mix for my friends baby shower a few years ago and it was a hit! Make this a mock tail or cocktail and sit back, relax and enjoy the refreshing flavors. Heck, make an entire pitcher and call it a day!

The addition of mint adds some extra jazz to this one, and I hear mint freshens the breath too right? Win win!

How to Make:

Muddle mint and blackberries together with lime juice (basically put them into a bowl together and mash with back of a spoon). You can also use a mortar and pestle if you have. Divide mashed berries into two glasses with a few cubes of ice.
