SERVINGS
1 drink

INGREDIENTS
1 1/2 ounces vodka
A handful (approximately 10-15) fresh blueberries, huckleberries, or blackberries
1/2 ounce fresh organic lemon cut into pieces
1/4 to 1/2 ounce organic agave nectar
2-3 sprigs of fresh thyme

PREPARATION
1. In a mixing cup add berries and lemon. Muddle to juice both.
2. Add Square One Organic Vodka, agave nectar and ice.
3. Shake vigorously for 20-30 seconds.
4. Take 3 sprigs of thyme and slap it between your palms to release the oils.
5. Place 2 sprigs in the bottom of a 10-ounce highball glass and fill it with ice.
6. Strain the cocktail over ice and stick the last thyme sprig in the cocktail as a garnish. It should stick out a bit like a small straw.
Note: For a refreshing summer spritzer, add 1 tablespoon of Crème de Cassis or D'Arbo Sour Cherry Syrup or Sonoma Black Currant Syrup and top with soda water.
