Blackberry Margarita Smash
Ingredients:
– 1 cup fresh blackberries
– 2 tablespoons sugar
– 1/2 cup tequila
– 1/4 cup lime juice (freshly squeezed)
– 2 tablespoons triple sec
– Ice cubes

3. To the pitcher, add the tequila, lime juice, and triple sec. Stir well to combine.
4. Prepare your serving glasses by running a lime slice around the rim and then dipping the rim into a plate of salt or sugar, depending on your preference.
5. Fill the glasses with ice cubes and pour the blackberry margarita mixture over the ice. Garnish with lime slices and additional blackberries.
6. Serve immediately and enjoy the refreshing blend of sweet blackberries and tangy lime.
