Blackberries? Then It Must Be Good For You

It's probably bad blog form to link to The Cocktail Chronicles in back to back posts, but since this was a rye recipe, I figured it fit in here pretty well.

This drink was introduced by Allen Katz, who says he retrieved this from the Baltimore Country Club, which documented its existence around 1898. Considering that fate made sure I had all the ingredients on hand, I thought it’d be a good idea to put one together. Considering this has rye, mint, blackberries and ginger beer (I broke out my last bottle of Blenheim’s for the gig), what’s not to like?
