Blackberry Ombre Sparkler

This Blackberry Ombre Sparkler is a refreshing, fruity cocktail perfect for summer parties and gatherings.

Ingredients - Serves 2

In a small saucepan, combine blackberries, sugar, and water. Bring to a boil on high heat, then reduce to a simmer and let cook for approximately 15-17 minutes. The blackberries will become soft and bright in color and a pinkish purple syrup will form.
Making sure it cooks down enough is essential to keeping the ombre effect. Take off of the heat and drain the blackberries, keeping the syrup in a separate bowl. Set both aside and let cool.
Once blackberries and simple syrup are cooled, spoon about 4 tablespoons of syrup on the bottom of each glass.
Top with crushed ice, about 1/2 cup of sparkling water, and a sprig of rosemary.
Gently mix the drink together to induce the ombre effect.
