Liquor World Cocktail Lounge
Minted Crushed Berry Limeade
3/4 cup fresh blackberries
3/4 cup fresh blueberries
3/4 cup fresh raspberries
3/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup cassis (black current liqueur)
1/4 cup mint leaves
2 cups lime juice, freshly squeezed
3 cups cold water
8 slices lime, cut 1/4 inch thick
In a blender, combine the berries, sugar, cassis, and mint. Pulse just until the berries are crushed, but not fully pureed. Pour mixture into a 2-quart pitcher or large mixing bowl. Add lime juice and water. Taste and adjust sweetness with additional sugar if necessary. Chill mixture completely.
To serve, pour the mixture into tall glasses filled with ice. Garnish with a mint leaf and a slitted slice of lime on the edge of each glass.
