This cocktail gets its lovely deep red-purplish hue from blackberry sweetener. Blackberry sweetener is that this splendidly luxurious mixture of grilled blackberries, water, and sugar that creates everything style higher.

(Later on I’ll be victimization the sweetener to create blackberry swirl pineapple Popsicles. keep tuned for the recipe!)

This technique works for just about any soft fruit. Once stone fruits create their summer look, I’ll undoubtedly be creating apricot sweetener, peach sweetener, and plum syrup!

• 1 1/2 oz dark rum
• 1/2 oz Grand Marnier
• 3/4 oz blackberry syrup, recipe follows
• 1/2 oz fresh lime juice
• 1 oz pineapple juice

Blackberry Syrup:

• 6 oz fresh blackberries
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1/2 cup water

INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Add ice to mixing glass. Pour in dark rum, Grand Marnier, blackberry syrup, lime juice, and pineapple juice.
2. Stir until mixture is cold. Strain cocktail into a serving glass with a big ice cube. Garnish with fresh mint, blackberries, and a slice of lime.
3. To make blackberry syrup: Place fresh blackberries, sugar, and water in a small sauce pot. Set over medium heat and bring to a boil.
