Ingredients

For the blackberry mint syrup (makes up to 10 drinks)

  • 2 cups blackberries
  • 3 cups water
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 5 mint leaves

For the mocktail (for one person)

  • 1/2 cup blackberry mint simple syrup

For the syrup:

  • Rinse blackberries, measure, and place in a saucepan with water, honey, and mint leaves.
  • Bring to a boil, then simmer for 15 minutes.
