Make It Your Way: Substitutions & Variations

Don't have enough blackberries for syrup? - make a mint syrup instead.
No plain soda water? - Use flavored sparkling water, like lemon, lime, or berry.
Use different berries - Fresh raspberries or strawberries would also work beautifully in place of blackberries. Use raspberry and strawberry simple syrup or do a mixed berry mocktail.
Make it a cocktail – Add a splash of white rum for a classic mojito twist.
