In your wine glass, add gin, St. Germaine, and then strain your muddled mixture in. Add ice, prosecco, and soda water. Give it a stir and garnish with a lemon slice, extra mint, and a few blackberries. Enjoy! *You can also use blackberry syrup instead of blackberries + simple syrup. I usually do a 1:1:1 ratio of my fruit, sugar, and water and simmer for about 15 minutes or until it starts to thicken. Strain and store in an airtight container. #cocktailoftheweek #cocktail #cocktails #happyhour #hugospritz #spritzseason #recipe
