Ingredients

  • 5 cups water
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons seedless blackberry jam (optional but delicious!)
  • 1 cup fresh squeezed lime juice
  • 1 cup fresh blackberries pureed and strained

Garnish

  • fresh limes
  • fresh blackberries
  • fresh mint sprigs

Instructions

  • Create a simple syrup by combining 1 cup of water, 1 cup of sugar and 2 tablespoons of jam.
    Bring to a boil until sugar is dissolved. Allow to cool 15 minutes. Add syrup to remaining 4 cups of water and one cup of lime juice. Fresh-squeezed is always the best, but bottled can be used.
    Puree or blend 1 cup of blackberries and strain out seeds through a fine sieve.
    Stir into the limeade.
    Serve over ice and garnish with fresh fruit and mint sprigs!
