Yields 2 8-oz. Glasses
For years, the blackberry plant in our garden has plotted its takeover of the fence and surrounding area should we ever neglect to trim it back or stake it upward. Last year’s blackberry bounty was more fruitful than the combined harvest from years prior and left me with berries to use after exhausting jam and cobbler avenues.
