- 1 cup blackberries
- 6 leaves mint
- 1 lime (juiced)
Sweetener
- 1 tbsp sugar

- 4 sprigs mint
- 1 lime (quartered)
Instructions
- Blackberry-Mint Muddle: In a mixing glass, combine 1 cup of blackberries, 6 mint leaves, 1 tablespoon of sugar, and the juice of 1 lime. Muddle these ingredients together thoroughly at the bottom of the glass to release the juices and flavors.

- You can substitute lemon-lime soda if 7UP® Cherry Soda is unavailable, though it may alter the flavor slightly.
- Adjust sugar according to sweetness preference.
- Serve immediately to enjoy the cocktail at its freshest and most bubbly.
