Ingredients
Blackberry Syrup
- 1/2 pint blackberries
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
Cocktail
- 1-1/2 ounces Reposado Tequila (3 tablespoons), such as Espolon
- 1/2 ounce fresh lime juice (1 tablespoon)
- 1/2 ounce triple sec (1 tablespoon)*
- 1 ounce blackberry syrup (2 tablespoons)
- 2-3 ounces ginger beer , such as Fever Tree
Instructions
Make the Syrup
- Rinse berries and leave damp. Toss in a bowl with sugar. Let sit for 30-45 minutes, stirring every 15 minutes.
- Strain mixture through a fine mesh sieve, pressing on berries with the back of a spoon to fully release juices. You should have about 1/2 cup blackberry syrup.**
Make the Cocktail
- Fill a cocktail shaker with ice and add tequila, lime juice, triple sec, and blackberry syrup. Cover and shake.
- Strain into a glass filled with fresh ice. Top with ginger beer. Garnish with fresh blackberries.
Notes
- *If you prefer a sweeter cocktail with a stronger blackberry flavor, substitute Blackberry Liqueur for the Triple Sec.
- **The blackberry syrup makes more than you need for one cocktail (about enough for 4). Store unused syrup, covered, in the refrigerator for 3-4 days.
- For a frosty look on the garnish, pop a few blackberries in the freezer for a couple of hours before making the cocktails.
