This Blackberry Mojito is such an easy drink to make.

You can take two approaches.

Use a muddler (I really love this bamboo one) to crush the berries with some lime juice, and mint leaves.

After that, you can either strain the mixture, or simply pour as it is in the cups and top off with the rum, and seltzer water.

I chose to strain mine, and I ended up adding some more fresh berries and sliced mint to the glass.

This recipe makes for 2 12 ounce drinks, or one large 24 oz one.

I figured I’d get some more cocktail recipes in my blog. Actually, I haven’t been drinking much lately, because I have been working so much. However, it was very nice to take a break and kick back with this drink at least for once!

I used simple syrup to sweeten my drink. Go ahead and use honey, agave, or even just sugar if you would like.

Making simple syrup is, as the name entails, simple!

Mix equal amounts of sugar and water in a small saucepan, bring to a boil, just until the sugar has melted. Turn off the heat.

Let mixture cool down.

You can store the simple syrup in the fridge indefinitely pretty much.

I always have some in my fridge. You can use it to sweeten iced beverages, like iced coffee, or cocktails. I use simple syrup the most probably to decorate my cakes. Every time I am decorating a cake, I brush simple syrup on the cake layers, to make the cake very moist and delicious!
