Ingredients

Servings
  • 1-2 oz bourbon whiskey
  • 5-6 blackberry or frozen work fine too, fresh
  • 1/2 lime plus wedge for garnish
  • 4-6 oz ginger beer
  • 4-8 leaves mint for drink & garnish, fresh

Instructions

  1. Start by tossing in 4-5 fresh, ripe blackberries into the bottom of a copper mule mug (or a chilled old fashioned, pour in your bourbon or whiskey and using a muddler; muddle your fruit with the bourbon.
  2. Then, if desired, take a few sprigs of mint and do the same thing, don't muddle too hard, you don't want the bitterness of the mint to be expressed, just the sweetness. Squeeze in the juice from half a lime into the glass.
  3. Fill the glass/cup with crushed ice; we don't have that function on our ice maker, so I just toss some ice cubes in a freezer baggie and get out my daily frustrations on the ice with a rolling pin = therapy and crushed ice for the WIN!
  4. Pour Ginger Beer and give it a gentle stir to bring up the lovely purple from the blackberries. Garnish with a wedge of lime, a few fresh or frozen blackberries, and a sprig of mint, serve immediately!

Notes

  • What is Muddling?
  • Basically simply translates into -- smashing the fruit gently with a muddler, releasing the flavors to help it better bind with the alcohol. Well, don't just sit there, start your muddlin'!
