Blackberry Lime Monster Mash Punch
Course Drink
Cuisine American
Servings 4 people

Equipment

  • Pitcher
  • Muddler
  • Glasses

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups fresh blackberries
  • 1/2 cup fresh lime juice
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 4 cups cold sparkling water
  • 2 cups ice cubes
  • Lime slices for garnish
  • Fresh mint sprigs for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Place the blackberries and sugar in a large pitcher. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to mash them together until the berries release their juices and the sugar starts to dissolve.
  • Pour the lime juice into the pitcher and stir well to combine the mixture.
  • Add the cold sparkling water and stir gently to avoid losing too many bubbles.
  • Fill four glasses with ice cubes and pour the punch over the ice.
  • Garnish each glass with a lime slice and a mint sprig before serving.

Notes

Muddle the blackberries just enough to release color and juice without turning them to complete mush if you want some whole berries floating in the glass. You can swap the granulated sugar for simple syrup if you prefer a smoother texture. Make the base ahead without the sparkling water and add it right before serving to keep the fizz.
