With all the juicing I've been doing lately, I've been attracted to cocktails with fruit. This is another Pinterest find from the website Bar None. It was a solid recipe and I only have two tweaks: I would make this drink with regular vodka instead of blackberry flavored vodka.
The flavored vodka added a syrupy element I didn't care for,
and I enjoyed round 2 with the regular vodka a bit more. I also added more mint leaves so
I could get a stronger mint flavor.
Blackberry Pineapple Smash Cocktail
5 blackberries
8 mint leaves
1/2 agave nectar
1 1/2 oz. vodka
1/2 oz lime juice
1 oz pineapple juice
In the bottom of a shaker, muddle 4 blackberries and 8 torn mint leaves with the agave nectar and lime juice. Add the other ingredients and ice and shake vigorously.
Strain into a glass and garnish with a spring of mint and a blackberry.
Cheers! XO Martha
