Equipment

- Serving glass
Ingredients
- 1 cup Fresh blackberries
- ½ cup Electrolyte drink
- 2 tbsp Fresh lime juice
- 1–2 tbsp Agave syrup or honey
- Ice
- Salt
- 1 wedge Lime
Instructions
- Prepare the glass: Rub the rim of a glass with a lime wedge, then dip into salt. Set aside.
- Muddle the blackberries: Add blackberries to a shaker or mixing glass and muddle until fully crushed.

Notes
- Fresh lime juice is essential for bright, clean flavor, bottled juice dulls the mocktail.
- Add sweetener last and adjust gradually; sweetness can’t be undone.
- Tajín can replace salt on the rim for a spicy twist.
- Swap blackberries for raspberries or use a coconut electrolyte drink for variation.
- Best served immediately while cold and fizzy.
