👩🍳 Directions (Step-by-Step)
Step 1: Make the Blackberry Thyme Syrup
In a saucepan, combine:
- Blackberries
- Thyme sprigs
- Sugar
- Water
Bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat. Cook for 5–7 minutes until the berries soften and release their juices.
Step 2: Mash and Infuse
Use a fork or spoon to gently mash the berries to deepen the flavor.
Turn off the heat and allow the mixture to steep for 10 minutes.
Step 3: Strain the Syrup
Pour the mixture through a fine mesh strainer into a small bowl or jar.
Press the berries to extract as much liquid as possible.
Discard the solids and let the syrup cool completely.
Step 4: Prepare Your Glasses
Add 2–3 tablespoons of the syrup to each glass.
(Use more for a deeper color.)
Step 5: Add the Fizz
Slowly pour chilled non-alcoholic prosecco or sparkling white grape juice over the syrup.
The bubbles will create a beautiful ombré effect.
Step 6: Stir Gently
Give the drink a gentle stir to incorporate the flavors without losing the fizz.
Step 7: Garnish and Serve
Add a fresh thyme sprig and a blackberry or two on top for a fresh, elegant finish.
Serve immediately while fizzy and cold.
