    This Blackberry Elderflower Vodka Cocktail is the perfect year-round vodka cocktail. It's light, refreshing and packs a lot of flavor! Muddled blackberries with fresh lemon combined with floral elderflower liqueur and vodka.

    This Blackberry Vodka & Elderflower Cocktail is the perfect segway into Fall/Winter cocktails. They're light, refreshing and pack a lot of flavor! I promise this is not one you're going to want to miss.

    You have to muddle the fruits for that extra blast of flavor that almost masks the taste of any alcohol at all! This Blackberry Vodka & Elderflower Cocktail is dangerously good .. one of those ones you want to drink and drink and drink and you forget there's anything inside! I add a splash of a simple syrup that made this a little extra wintery, but it's also not necessary at all. I will say it does change the taste quite a bit but both ways are delicious. I think experiment with both and tell me which you like best!

    If you're looking for a Summer cocktail with the same vibes, try my Strawberry-Basil Vodka Cocktail. I had a hard time deciding which is my favorite and am STILL trying to decide!

    You can try this cocktail changed up a few ways:

    • Use Gin instead
    • Strain into a coupe glass and top with Prosecco or Club Soda

    A good tip I was given once is to add the cheapest parts of your drink first so that in the chance you mess up, you're not wasting the alcohol!
