Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 tbsp honey
  • 1/4 vanilla bean (split)
  • 3/4 cup water
  • 1/2 cup blackberries
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla bean paste
  • 3 tbsp fresh lemon juice (about 1 large lemon)
  • 3.17 oz Lemon Italian Soda (OR sparkling water)
  • Ice

Instructions

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine honey, vanilla bean, blackberries, vanilla bean paste, and water. Bring to a light boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Simmer for 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let it cool for 30 minutes.
  2. Pour the mixture through a fine wire-mesh strainer into a large bowl, reserving the blackberries and discarding the vanilla bean. Blend together the liquid and blackberries on high until smooth. Pour the mixture through the strainer once more to remove seeds.
  3. Stir in the fresh lemon juice. This makes the concentrate, which should be covered and chilled for 3 to 48 hours.
  4. For serving, mix 1/2 cup of the blackberry vanilla concentrate with Lemon Italian Soda (OR sparkling water) and add ice.
