Ingredients (Serves 1)
- 2 tablespoons Syruvia Blackberry Syrup (sugar-free or pure cane)
- 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice (about half a lemon)
- ¾ cup cold water or sparkling water
- ½ cup ice cubes
- Lemon slice and fresh blackberries for garnish (optional)
How to Make It
Begin by filling a tall glass with ice. This ensures your drink stays cold and refreshing, especially on warm days.
In a separate glass or small pitcher, mix the Syruvia Blackberry Syrup with the freshly squeezed lemon juice. Stir until the syrup and lemon juice are fully combined. This step is key to creating a base that’s both rich and tangy.
Next, pour in the water or sparkling water. Sparkling water will give your Blackberry Lemonade a fizzy texture that makes it even more refreshing. Stir everything together gently until well mixed.
Carefully pour the blended lemonade mixture over the prepared ice in your serving glass. Stir once more to evenly distribute the flavor throughout.
Top your drink with a thin lemon slice and a few fresh blackberries if available. These small additions not only enhance presentation but also add a little extra flavor with each sip.
