Ingredients

Cocktail shaker

  • 0.25 lime, cut into 2 wedges
  • 8 blackberries
  • 5 large mint leaves
  • 2 ounces bourbon (4 tablespoons)
  • 0.5 ounce or simple syrup or maple syrup (1 tablespoon)
  • Soda water, for serving (optional)

Steps

  1. Place the lime, berries, and mint leaves in cocktail shaker. Muddle (gently mash) them 4 to 5 times to extract their flavor. (Here’s more on How to Muddle Mint.)
