directions
Step 1
Mix all ingredients together in a shaker with ice. Shake vigorously and fine strain into a champagne flute or coupe. Top with sparkling wine.
Step 2
Over low/medium heat, add blackberries to a medium sized pot. Allow berries to reduce.
Step 3
When berries turn slightly pale in colour, strain pulp through a sieve. Reserve blackberry reduction (approximately 2 c). Discard pulp.
Step 4
In a separate pot, bring 5 cups of water to a light boil and gradually add 5 cups of sugar, allowing it to dissolve.
Step 5
Once sugar is dissolved, set aside to cool. Add blackberry reduction and stir until thoroughly mixed.
