  2. Then, heat the saucepan over medium heat and cook the ingredients for around 15 to 25 minutes.
  3. While cooking the ingredients, make sure you stir the mixture occasionally. Bring the ingredients to cook until the blackberries get softened.
  4. In the end, the mixture turns to be thick.
  5. Here, you need to strain the syrup before you use it. For the straining process, check the following step below.
  6. Prepare a mesh sieve to strain the syrup and discard any lumps or seeds produced from the syrup.
  7. For the pulp, you may discard them or use them to make smoothies. After you have strained the syrup, put it on the counter to cool for around 20 minutes before you use it as a drink.

  5. Now, it is time to shake the shaker and combine the ingredients. Make sure they are all completely mixed and simply put the lemonade mixture into the refrigerator or freezer to chill for several minutes.
  6. When it is done, take it out of the fridge and pour the cocktail into the serving glass.
