I meant to get this up for a happy hour post on Friday. It is AMAZING what a difference fresh ingredients play in something so simple as a cocktail. This is a very refreshing summer cocktail. The flavor of those 2 little blackberries really shines through. I hope you enjoy this while listening to a clip from one of my very favorite artists……Jamie Cullum.
