Ingredients
- 12 fresh blackberries
- 12 large mint leaves
- 1 Tbsp lime juice
- 1 Tbsp lemon juice
- 1-2 tsp. granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup seltzer water
- 1/4 cup (2 oz.) vodka or rum

Instructions
- Muddle* blackberries, mint leaves, juices and sugar in a tall glass until berries are mostly crushed and mint releases flavor. (If you don’t have a muddler, a wooden spoon or firm silicon spatula works well).

Notes
*To muddle is a cocktail term meaning to gently crush. Click here to see a muddler. I had to look it up the first time I saw the term!
