Chef's tip
Use the same volume. Baking behavior varies by blend: some brown faster or stay softer, while others brown less. Follow the package's baking guidance and start checking a few minutes early.
¼ cup water

For the cocktail

12 fresh blackberries
16 fresh mint leaves, plus 2 sprigs for garnish
3 oz fresh lime juice (from about 3 limes)
3 oz white rum
1 cup ice cubes
1 cup sparkling water

For serving

2 lime wheels (optional)
4 fresh blackberries (optional)

Instructions

1
Combine the sugar and water in a small saucepan over medium heat, stirring until the sugar is fully dissolved, about 2–3 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool to room temperature, about 5 minutes.
2
Divide the 12 blackberries and 16 mint leaves evenly between the two highball glasses. Using a muddler, press and twist firmly 6–8 times until the blackberries are fully crushed and the mint is bruised and fragrant — you should see deep purple juice coating the bottom of each glass.
