Blackberry lemon old fashioned

Step 1

Place the blackberries, sugar, and lemon slice in a low ball cocktail glass. Top with bitters.Muddle together with a muddler or the back of a wooden spoon. Be careful with the lemon. You do not want to muddle the rind, just the juicy, pulpy part.Top off with your favorite rye or bourbon, stir together, and add ice if desired. Garnish with blackberries (optional).
