How to Make Blackberry Mint Juleps
- In a small bowl, gently mash together 1 cup blackberries, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Let the mixture sit at room temperature for 20 minutes to allow the blackberries to release their juices.
- Strain the blackberry mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl, using a rubber spatula to press out as much juice as possible. Discard the seeds.
- For each julep, place 3 tablespoons of the blackberry syrup and 8-10 fresh mint leaves into an old-fashioned glass. Gently muddle the mint and syrup together using the back of a wooden spoon or a muddler.
- Fill the glass with crushed ice.
- Add 1/4 cup bourbon (adjust to your preference).
- Top with a splash of club soda or seltzer.
- Garnish with a fresh mint sprig and a blackberry (optional).
