What is Homemade Blackberry Drink?
Homemade blackberry drink is made by mixing fresh blackberries with water and adding a little sugar to balance their tartness. The berries can be crushed and left in for a fuller texture, or strained for a smoother, clearer drink.
Serve it chilled for a fruity, gently tangy refreshment alongside a meal or as a summertime alternative to sweetened soft drinks. It gets some fibre and vitamin C from the fruit, while most of its energy comes from carbohydrates. Adjust the sugar to suit the ripeness of the berries; leaving in the pulp also keeps more of the fruit’s texture.
