The season for plump luscious berries is upon us. Since making their appearance, I’ve taken the opportunity to become more acquainted with them, especially with blackberries. Blackberries have made their way into several recipes and this simple recipe is one of them.

This drink is one refreshing way to savor the sweet taste of juicy blackberries. Whiz this in a blender and serve as an alternative breakfast drink, to accompany a Sunday brunch, or simply to get a dose of antioxidants any time.

1 cup filtered water
½ cup ripe blackberries
2 tablespoons lemon juice, fresh squeezed
2 tablespoons agave

Blend the blackberries, water, lemon juice and agave in a blender until liquefied. Strain the blackberry juice through a fine mesh strainer to remove any seeds.

This drink separates. Serve immediately.

Serving suggestion: It looks great in a wine glass. Garnish the glass with a slice of lemon or a blackberry.

Serves 1
